The Permanent Horizon: A New Search for Old Truths

223 pp. A warning against fanaticism. Looks upon the present-day civilized world and sees it in danger of being torn asunder by new fanaticisms. These fanaticisms, both of the Right and of the Left, fail to take into account many decisive facts of human nature. He maintains that until some such balance is established, mankind cannot go on; it can only lapse or go astray.
