Overview
Excerpt from The Independent: January 8, 1921From this point of view we may define civilization as the breaking down of natural barriers to the expansion of human individuality thru the scientific control of energy. Man is running an obstacle race with the world as prize. He has to surmount or overthrow the hurdles and fences which inanimate nature or the carelessness of his forerun ners has placed in his path.Let us then for a moment consider human progress from this negative standpoint and observe how far man has or may overcome the limitations imposed upon his activities.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
