Excerpt from The Fallacy of the German State Philosophy
We are in war, but war is only a part of what we are in; we are in a revolution Of the moral, social, educational, and political systems Of the great human race. War is the expression of but one phase of this fateful revolution. If we are to survive and remain free, we must accurately value our own creed and the creed Of our enemy, to the end that we may strengthen the foundation and augment the superstructure of our civilization.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the clash between German philosophy and Western ideals during World War I. The author argues that Germany's belief in the superiority of its state and its right to dominate others is deeply rooted in a misinterpretation of Darwin's theory of evolution. According to this view, the strongest and fittest nations have the right to conquer and rule the weaker. The author, however, demonstrates that the German philosophy of force is flawed and ultimately self-destructive. True strength, the author says, comes from cooperation, justice, and the moral development of individuals within a nation. This book's analysis of the interplay between philosophy, science, and politics makes it a valuable resource for understanding the historical roots and ongoing relevance of these ideas.
