Josiah Strong

4.9/5 (18920 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from Expansion Under New World-Conditions The twentieth century is confronted by conditions which are new in the history of the world, which concern the nations in general and the United States in particular. In this book the subject of Expansion is discussed in the light of these new conditions. Students of civilization are attaching more importance to physical conditions now than formerly. Says Professor William G.Sumner of Yale University: "The notion that progress proceeds in the first instance from intellectual or moral stimuli, or that progress is really something in the world of thought, and not of sense, has led to the most disappointing and abortive efforts to teach and elevate inferior races or neglected classes. The ancestors of the present civilized races did not win their civilization by any such path. They built it up through centuries of toil from a foundation of surplus material means, which they won through improvements in the industrial arts and in the economic organization." Civilization is shaped by as many causes as there are motives to which men are susceptible, but industry the way in which men get their living is dominant with the million. Man is capable of reaching a spiritual elevation such that he is controlled by the loftiest motives. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
