'For me, I think James Harvey Robinson is going to be almost as important as was Huxley in my adolescence, and William James in later years. It is a cardinal book. I question whether in the long run people may not come to it, as making a new initiative into the world's thoughts and methods' From the Introduction by H.G.Wells

James Harvey Robinson (June 29, 1863-February 16, 1936) Robinson was an American historian and philosopher, born in Bloomington, Illinois. He taught history at the University of Pennsylvania (1891-95) and Columbia University (1895-1919), he became fulltime professor in 1895. Following a series of faculty resignations from the astute Columbia University over disputes about academic freedom, (This included the resignation of Charles Beard), Robinson resigned from Columbia in May of 1919 and became one of the founders of the New School for Social Research. To which he received the honor of being its first director. A man truly ahead of his time. His writings and lectures, stressed the "new history" evolution of humanity. He was a pivotal player and an important influence on the study and teaching of history. As a new thought teacher he stressed the principles of metaphysics and other new age sciences. His body of work is not only considered groundbreaking but genius as well.
