"This volume beings with an essay on 'The Value of Scepticism,' and all its seventeen essays have this in common, that they advocate a considerable degree of scepticism. The earlier essays give in popular form scientific and philosophical reasons for an undogmatic attitude in all departments of knowledge. Then there is a group of essays setting out the moral and ethical advantages of a realization that our beliefs are all subject to error. The third group applies scepticism to politics; while the last essay in the volume suggests--though with due scepticism--certain things likely to happen in politics, economics, family life, art, and literature, if our industrial society develops without a cataclysm"--From dust jacket.
