The New Basis Of Civilization (1907) - Paperback

by Simon Nelson Patten (Author)

The New Basis of Civilization is a book written by Simon Nelson Patten in 1907. In this book, Patten argues that the traditional economic theories of the time were inadequate for the rapidly changing world of the early 20th century. He proposes a new economic system that takes into account the social and moral aspects of human behavior, rather than just focusing on individual self-interest. Patten believes that this new system would lead to a more just and equitable society, where everyone has access to the resources they need to thrive. He also discusses the role of technology in shaping the future of civilization and the need for education to prepare individuals for this new world. The New Basis of Civilization is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges traditional economic thinking and offers a new vision for the future of society.The Kennedy Lectures For 1905, In The School Of Philanthropy, Conducted By The Charity Organization Society Of The City Of New York.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
