Evolution Versus Involution (1885)

Evolution Versus Involution is a philosophical work written by Ezra Z. Derr in 1885. The book explores the concepts of evolution and involution and their impact on human society and the natural world. Derr argues that evolution, the process of gradual development and change over time, has been overemphasized in modern society, leading to a neglect of involution, the process of inward growth and development. He contends that a balance between these two forces is necessary for human progress and the preservation of the natural world. The book also delves into topics such as morality, spirituality, and the role of science in society. Overall, Evolution Versus Involution is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to reconsider their understanding of progress and growth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
