Abstract

This book is addressed to all who are aware of the terrible predicament which faces us as a result the virtually complete take-over of our world by the modern scientific mentality. By examining the premises of modern scientific theory and practice, the author shows how the acceptance and implementation of the scientific world-view inevitably results in the progressive dehumanization of man and society. By placing the secular world-view within the perspective of spiritual anthropology and cosmology the author points to the only viable way of escaping from the self-destructive course on which we are now set. Reviewers were unanimous in their claim that this is a book of quite outstanding importance.
