Présentation de l'éditeur
Although it has cost its author a great deal more thought and labor than will be apparent, it falls, in his estimation, far below the demands of its implacably urgent theme. Each page could readily be expanded into a volume. It suggests but the beginning of the beginning now being made to raise mens thinking onto a plain which may perhaps enable them to fend off or reduce some of the dangers which lurk on every hand. .

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tackles the crucial question of why, despite our best intentions, we seem unable to solve the world's most pressing problems. The author, a historian deeply invested in understanding how human thought has developed, argues that our inability to effectively reform society stems from our ingrained, often unconscious, ways of thinking. The book delves into the nature of thought itself, examining the different modes of thinking we employ - from the mindless reverie, to the self-serving rationalizations we use to defend our beliefs, to the rare instances of genuine critical thought that drive progress. By exploring the origins of our cherished convictions, the author invites us to question the assumptions we hold dear and to challenge the status quo. The book is a powerful call to break free from the shackles of tradition and embrace a more critical and informed approach to understanding the world around us. Ultimately, the book suggests that a true reformation of society requires a fundamental transformation in how we think.
