Excerpt from Principles of Western Civilisation
The extraordinary reach of the changes which the evolutionary doctrine is, to all appearance, destined to accomplish is not as yet fully perceived by any school of thought. But, if the attempt be made to grasp the application of what we may now distinguish to be one of its central principles, some general idea may be obtained of the remarkable character of the results towards which our Western world is rapidly moving.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an analysis of the profound changes in human society brought about by the evolutionary doctrine. The author demonstrates how Darwinian principles fundamentally shifted our understanding of social, ethical, and political systems. The focus is on the significant departure from the previous belief that individual interests were the primary driving force in social evolution. Instead, it is argued that the ultimate aim of natural selection is to benefit not just present generations but also the distant future. Through this lens, the book explores vital concepts such as the role of social institutions in shaping human behavior and the relationship between the present and the future in shaping our collective development. This book offers a refreshing perspective on the social implications of evolution, shedding light on the complexities of human progress.
