Heretics is a collection of twenty essays written by English author G. K. Chesterton where he attempts to compile many of his classic thoughts that are consolidated into a single draft. The concerns he addresses in Heretics are just as relevant to 'vague moderns' in the 21st century as they were to those in the 20th. The topics covered in the book include cosmology, anthropology, and soteriology. He also makes arguments against social Darwinism, eugenics, German humanism, English utilitarianism, French nihilism, and European elite hubris. G. K. Chesterton states the philosophy of Oscar Wilde and George Bernard Shaw. He opposed the philosophy of Sir Wilde but to read what he said, Readers should go through the well-written book, 'Heretics'. With an eye-catching cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Heretics is both modern and relatable. The book has been regarded as a classic and has been a great collection of ideas to be read by readers of any age group.
