What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper
The first edition of the work.
In publisher's original beige cloth binding. In the original unclipped dust wrapper. With a frontispiece.
This work is a series of six lectures exploring the balance between social order and individual freedom in modern society. Russel examines how institutions like government, education, and religion shape behaviour, often at the expense of personal liberty.
Warning against totalitarianisms while advocating for rational governance, creative freedom and ethical responsibility, the work reflects Russell's deep concern for the future of humanity amidst technological change, political power and the threat of conformity.
