Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Man-Building a Treatise on Human Life and Its Forces
The author has sought a title for this book which would clearly express its character. From infancy to mature years there is built up a phys ical and mental structure which occupies a place of special honor in the world of being. Man is but little lower than God. This statement is based on the high order of his powers. But he begins life in a condition of utter feebleness. He is, when he reaches manhood, so much more than the new-born child because of the operation of a building process which must be carried forward strictly under prescribed laws of development, if the largest results be obtained.
