189128414London: Macmillan & Company 1891. First edition. Paper wrappers. Removed from a larger volume lacking rear wrapper front wrapper detached with some minor chips to top edge and joint otherwise contents very good. 128 pp. 12mo. A second edition was published the same year. Criticises William Booth founder of the Salvation Army whose book 'In Darkest England and the Way Out' became a best seller. Huxley felt Booth's schemes were too socialistic. "Mr. Booth's system appears to me and- as I have shown is regarded by Socialists themselves to be mere autocratic Socialism masked by its theological exterior.The most degrading feature of the narrower forms of Christianity of which that professed by Mr. Booth is a notable example is their insistance that the noblest virtues if displayed by those who reject their pitiable formula are as their pet phrase goes "splendid sins."

The array is both formidable and inspiring The instances given spread over the whole field of human endeavour and are of a kind and extent to go far towards correcting our national tendency to self-depreciation." <br /><br /><strong>SIR JULIAN HUXLEY</strong> 1887 – 1975 was a British evolutionary biologist eugenicist and internationalist. He was the first Director of UNESCO a founding member of the World Wildlife Fund and the first President of the British Humanist Association.
