The Source And Aim Of Human Progress (1919)

""The Source and Aim of Human Progress"" is a philosophical treatise written by Boris Sidis in 1919. In this book, Sidis explores the nature of human progress and its underlying causes. He argues that progress is driven by a combination of biological, psychological, and social factors, and that these factors are interconnected in complex ways.Sidis also examines the role of individual agency in the process of progress, and the ways in which individuals can contribute to or hinder the advancement of society as a whole. He explores the relationship between progress and morality, arguing that progress is not inherently good or bad, but rather depends on the values and goals of those who pursue it.Throughout the book, Sidis draws on a wide range of philosophical and scientific sources, including the works of Darwin, Freud, and Nietzsche. He also incorporates insights from his own experiences as a psychologist and philosopher.Overall, ""The Source and Aim of Human Progress"" offers a thought-provoking and nuanced exploration of one of the most fundamental questions of human existence: what drives progress, and what is its ultimate goal?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
