Physics and Politics (Paperback)

Valutazione del venditore 3 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. One of the great short masterpieces of nineteenth-century thought, Physics and Politics is in essence a brilliant essay in social psychology. It defines with grim humor the conditions of stability and social progress. Physics in Bagehots book, refers to natural science; politics to social science. His vastly stimulating analysis was the first important effort to comprehend the implications of the new science (especially Darwinism) for the study of political affairs. In the process, Bagehot makes unforgettably clear the complex, often tragic relation between individual and collective happiness. Roger Kimballs introduction and notes place Bagehots ideas in perspective for todays reader and evaluate the continuing usefulness of his observations. "We go to Bagehot for something that seems very difficult to convey accurately through mere definition or single examplesthe true character of political man. This character, in turn, is important to discover, because on it depends the possibility of leading a life above physics, a life better than that of the jungle."Jacques Barzun. A brilliant essay in social psychology and one of the great short masterpieces of 19th-century thought, Physics and Politics defines with grim humor the conditions of stability and social progress. We go to Bagehot for something that seems very difficult to convey accurately through mere definition or single examples—the true character of political man. —Jacques Barzun. With an Introduction and Notes by Roger Kimball. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability. Codice articolo 9781566632218
