Capa do Edward Carpenter: Civilisation: Its Cause and Cure (ePUB)

British-born thinker and activist Edward Carpenter proposes a number of novel ideas in this engaging collection of essays. Chief among them is the notion that most of the civilized societies that have emerged throughout human history have crumbled after a period of centuries. Carpenter posits that "civilization" is a developmental phase that humankind must pass through in its evolution toward a truly enlightened state of being.
