The Changing Humanities: An Appraisal Of Old Values And New Uses is a book written by David Harrison Stevens that explores the evolution of the humanities field. The book delves into the traditional values and practices that have long defined the humanities, while also examining the ways in which the field has adapted to meet the changing needs of society.Stevens argues that the humanities have always been a vital part of human culture, providing a framework for understanding the world and our place in it. However, he also acknowledges that the humanities have faced challenges in recent years, as technological advancements and shifting cultural norms have led to new demands for knowledge and expertise.The book is divided into several sections, each of which explores a different aspect of the changing humanities. Topics covered include the history of the humanities, the impact of technology on the field, the role of the humanities in contemporary society, and the challenges facing the humanities in the future.Throughout the book, Stevens draws on a wide range of sources, including academic research, personal anecdotes, and interviews with experts in the field. He also provides numerous examples of how the humanities have been applied in various contexts, from education and politics to business and the arts.Overall, The Changing Humanities offers a thoughtful and insightful analysis of the state of the humanities today, and provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the role of the humanities in our rapidly changing world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
