The Great Problem (1911)

The Great Problem (1911) The Great Problem is a book written by Ivan Howland Benedict in 1911. The book explores the concept of the ''great problem'' that humanity has faced throughout history - the struggle to find meaning and purpose in life. Benedict argues that this problem has been exacerbated by the rise of modern civilization, which has led to a loss of connection with nature and a sense of spiritual emptiness. The author draws on a wide range of sources, including philosophy, religion, and literature, to explore the nature of this problem and offer potential solutions. He argues that the key to solving the great problem lies in reconnecting with nature and rediscovering a sense of spirituality. Throughout the book, Benedict also touches on a variety of related topics, including the role of science and technology in modern society, the importance of art and literature, and the need for social and political reform. Overall, The Great Problem is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of a timeless philosophical question. It offers a unique perspective on the challenges facing humanity in the modern era and provides valuable insights into how we can find meaning and purpose in our lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
