Schiller that explores the concept of human progress and the potential for humanity to achieve a utopian future. The book delves into various philosophical and scientific theories, including the idea of evolution and the role of technology in shaping society. Schiller argues that humanity is constantly striving towards a better future, but that progress is often hindered by various obstacles, such as greed, ignorance, and fear. He suggests that by overcoming these obstacles and embracing a more rational and empathetic approach to life, humans can create a world that is truly utopian. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition and offers insights into how we can work towards a better future for ourselves and for future generations.1924. Schiller uses the hero Tantalus to defend social eugenics and argues that civilization and science permit the weak and feeble-minded to survive, threatening the human race.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
