Synopsis
This book explores the complex and ever -changing concept of progress. The author traces the evolution of this idea from its origins in the Renaissance to its current materialistic incarnation, arguing that the pursuit of material wealth has eclipsed the humanistic ideals that once fueled the drive for progress. The author challenges the assumption that equates progress with technological advancement, arguing instead for a broader definition that encompasses social and moral development. Only by recognizing the limitations of material progress and embracing a more holistic view of human well -being, concludes the author, can we chart a truly progressive course for the future.
