Book Heredity and Social Progress  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Heredity and Social Progress Classic Reprint written by Simon N. Patten and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heredity and Social Progress The social surplus is a part of the annual produce of nations. It is concretely embodied in goods which perish, and must be replaced by renewed effort in each epoch. Nature aids man freely, but not in increasing ratios. The amount of the natural surplus varies, and there are resultant periods of plenty and of scarcity; but a static population ever presses against this limit, and leaves no room for progress, which comes only after conscious effort, and brings with it the social surplus. Man, in his endeavor to improve his con dition, faces a law of diminishing returns. In each epoch the purely natural conditions are a little worse than they were in the preceding, and society would decline, unless men made greater exertions. We picture this in a large way when we say that the sun is the source of all energy, and that the energy steadily wanes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heredity and Human Progress Mong the many questions which, in this eager age, press for solution, there is none of deeper interest to the thoughtful and philanthropic mind than that which pertains to the treatment of our defectives and criminals. If we view broadly the evil which these individuals engender, we find 'not only that it thwarts the best purposes of men but that it lies at the very root of all human misery. When we have conceived and put into application a wise solution of this problem, we shall have begun a true rejuvenation of the race.

Book Education and Social Progress  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Education and Social Progress Classic Reprint written by Ira W. Howerth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education and Social Progress Holding in mind, then, the conception of a developing social group, we may describe the social evolutionary process which results primarily in the education of the social group, in the same manner that was employed in outlining the development of the individual. The process of group development, like that of individual development, may be divided into natural or genetic, and artificial or telic evolution. The natural evolution of the social group, so far as it is progressive, has resulted from the operation of external causes, or from the activities of the members of the group undirected towards a social end. Natural social evolution is a resultant of the reactions of the group upon its environment, and the activities of its members directed towards the satisfaction of their desires without thought of the effect of these activities upon social develop ment. It is wholly unintended. Looking back at the his torical development of society, for instance, we can see that social progress has sometimes been achieved without its being aimed at by anybody. This phase of the development of a social group corresponds exactly to the natural development of the biological organism. It is the education which Nature gives to the social group thru its unconscious experience with its obj ective'and subjective environment.

Book Heredity and Environment in the Development of Men  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Heredity and Environment in the Development of Men Classic Reprint written by Edwin Grant Conklin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heredity and Environment in the Development of Men Ontogeny and Phylogeny - One of the greatest and most far reaching themes which has ever occupied the minds of men is the problem of development. Whether it be the development of an animal from an egg, of a race or species from a pre-existing one, or of the body, mind and institutions of man, this problem is everywhere much the same in fundamental principles, and knowledge gained in one of these fields must be Of value in each of the others. Ontogeny and phylogeny are not wholly distinct phenomena, but are only two aspects of the one general process of organic development. The evolution of races and of species is sufficiently rare and unfamiliar to attract much attention and serious thought; while the development of an individual is a phenomenon of such universal occurrence that it is taken as a matter of course by most people, something so evident that it seems to require no explanation; but familiarity with the fact of development does not remove the mystery which lies back of it, though it may make plain many of the processes concerned. The development of a human being, of a personality, from a germ cell is the climax of all wonders, greater even than that involved in the evolution of a species or in the making of a world.
