About this Item
pp. ix, 117. 8vo. Publisher's original gray cloth boards, maroon lettering to the spine. Exceptionally well-preserved showing no detectable flaws to the cloth extremities, contents equally without blemish with bright, clean, and unmarked pages and firm, sound binding; near fine and housed in very good original, unclipped, dustjacket showing some light spotting, and wear along the edges of the panels, bearing original price of $3.00 (now housed in protective mylar cover). Overall, very good+. Scarce first printing of the second published work by the noted Canadian philosopher, nationalist, and political theorist. Dr. Grant's penetrating analysis of the ideas that have helped make the present day mass society of both East and West will throw light on the recurring questions of thoughtful men: what is modern man; how did he come to be, and where is he heading? Dr. Grant traces the development of two basic philosophies of life: the theory of the natural law - that each creature achieves its perfection by accepting its place in the order of hierarchical being - and the theory of unlimited progress - that man is capable of changing the order of being, of making the world what he wishes it to be.
