Happy Humanity (1912) - Frederik Van Eeden - Bog

Happy Humanity is a book written in 1912 by Frederik van Eeden, a Dutch writer and psychiatrist. The book explores the concept of a utopian society where everyone is happy and fulfilled. Van Eeden describes a world where people are free from the constraints of capitalism, religion, and social hierarchies. He envisions a society where people work together for the common good, and where creativity and art are valued above material possessions. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part outlining Van Eeden's vision of a happy society. The second part explores the obstacles that prevent such a society from existing, including greed, selfishness, and ignorance. The third and final part of the book proposes solutions to these obstacles, including education, social reform, and spiritual growth. Throughout the book, Van Eeden draws on his own experiences as a psychiatrist to argue that mental health is essential to creating a happy society. He also emphasizes the importance of individual freedom and autonomy, arguing that a truly happy society must allow for diversity and difference. Happy Humanity is a thought-provoking and optimistic book that offers a vision of a better world. Despite being written over a century ago, its ideas remain relevant and inspiring today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
