September 1912. MY DEAR ,I had intended to ask you to allow me to dedicate this book to you; I have decided, however, to preface it with an open letter addressed to you anonymously, without your permission. Let me explain the reasons which have led me to spare you this request. Finding myself unexpectedly enjoying a spell of absolute intellectual independence, after twenty-five years or, to put it grandiloquently, a quarter of a century of unconscious intellectual submission, my thoughts naturally turned to the contemplation of the whole system of wage-earning stretching out into the past behind me. I had tested it, in complete economic dependence, from somewhere very near the bottom to the top, and had discovered it to be pretty consistently rotten throughout. My own employers had been not a few, many others I had known intimately in their work.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This non-fiction book delves into the complex and evolving nature of human societies from their inception to the present day. It provides a fresh perspective on political and social history by viewing societies through the lens of human collectivism and individualism. The author argues that human societies are organic unities that inevitably undergo periods of collective growth, unity, and decline. Against this backdrop, the book analyzes major societal shifts, including the rise and fall of civilizations and the enduring influence of human nature. The compelling insights offered in this book shed new light on the forces that drive social change and the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
