Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Can Mankind Survive
If for a time we could induce all people to study the new social forces at work with out heat or prejudice, with un?inching can dor, as the surgeon takes an X-ray photo graph of a broken bone in order to treat and heal it, the basis of an enlightenment which would save from destruction would be gained. N 0 other method can give us that basis. The old habit of anger at all honest social diagnosis is suicidal. Never before was the world in so evil and wholly perilous a state as now, and the stony pride in iniquity that has controlled the past will prevent a redeeming reorganization of mankind if it is not broken. Let us there fore proceed as if this base pride did not exist and as if modern men were united in the will to produce a world decent and fit to dwell in.
