The New Basis of Civilization (1907) is a book written by Simon Nelson Patten, an American economist and professor at the University of Pennsylvania. In this book, Patten argues that civilization is based on economic principles and that the progress of society depends on the development of economic institutions. He contends that the traditional view of civilization as being based on moral and ethical principles is outdated and that the future of civilization lies in the hands of those who can create economic systems that are efficient and productive. Patten also discusses the role of government in shaping economic institutions and the importance of education in preparing individuals for economic success. The book is considered a seminal work in the field of economics and provides insights into the development of economic theory in the early 20th century.The Kennedy Lectures For 1905, In The School Of Philanthropy, Conducted By The Charity Organization Society Of The City Of New York.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
