ABOUT THIS BOOK:
The thesis of E. H. Ijams book, Power to Survive and Surpass, is that the maintenance of Western civilization in the face of the converging tides of destruction mounting throughout the twentieth century, depends more on the spiritual qualities and moral resources of Western man than on our vast and popularly trusted material wealth and military power. The great paradox of this century is that though man has made astounding progress in mastering the external, physical world, he has done little or nothing to increase the spiritual excellence of his own human nature. The result is a widening gap between what man is and what he must become in moral character and inner quality in order to manage his expanding responsibilities in the space age.(Publisher).
