Publisher's Synopsis
Uncivilized Civilization is a thought-provoking book written by Morris Schwartzberg in 1920. The book takes a critical look at modern society and its impact on the individual. Schwartzberg argues that while our society has made tremendous progress in terms of technology and scientific advancements, it has also led to a loss of our humanity.Through a series of essays, Schwartzberg explores various aspects of modern civilization, including the rise of industrialization, the role of education, and the impact of urbanization on our lives. He argues that these developments have led to a loss of our connection to nature, a lack of community, and a sense of alienation from our fellow human beings.Schwartzberg also examines the impact of capitalism on our society, arguing that it has led to a focus on materialism and consumerism, rather than on the well-being of individuals and communities. He suggests that we need to shift our focus away from profit and towards a more sustainable and equitable society.Overall, Uncivilized Civilization is a powerful critique of modern society and a call to action for individuals to re-examine their values and priorities. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the challenges facing our society today and how we can work towards a better future.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
