Publisher's Synopsis

Social Abominations: Or The Follies Of Modern Society is a book written by Norman Morand Roumane and published in 1897. The book is a commentary on the various social ills that plagued society during the late 19th century. Roumane's writing is critical of the upper classes and their extravagant lifestyles, which he viewed as the root cause of many of these social problems.The book covers a wide range of topics, including the treatment of women, the rise of consumerism, the decline of morality, and the corrupting influence of money. Roumane argues that these issues are interconnected and that they are all symptoms of a larger problem with modern society.Throughout the book, Roumane uses examples from his own experiences and observations to illustrate his points. He also draws on the works of other writers and thinkers, including Charles Darwin and Friedrich Nietzsche, to support his arguments.Despite its age, Social Abominations remains relevant today as a critique of modern society and a call to action for those who seek to improve it. The book is a powerful reminder of the importance of social responsibility and the need for individuals to take a stand against injustice and inequality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
