A Good Life in A Sane Civilization

As the author sees it, the Modern Industrial Civilization has made immense contribution to the progress of society, but the progress is much lopsided along with a pronounced materialist bias and indifference to the moral-spiritual aspect of life, leading to what might be called ‘a condition of material abundance and spiritual emptiness’. In the present book, the author pinpoints a number of major evils emerging in this civilization and afflicting more and more men and his society, threatening seriously human life and civilization. He strives to offer an answer to the evils and with unquestionable debt to Mahatma Gandhi, emphasizes on an alternative path for mankind, aiming at a compassionate, conscientious, creative and contented life in, what he considers, a sane civilization.
