''Is The World Growing Better?'' is a non-fiction book written by James Henry Snowden and published in 1919. The book is a collection of essays that examine the progress of humanity in various areas, including science, technology, politics, and religion. Snowden, a prominent American theologian and academic, explores the question of whether the world is truly becoming a better place, or if the problems of the past are simply being replaced by new ones. The book is divided into eight chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of human progress. Snowden examines the impact of science and technology on society, the role of religion in shaping moral values, and the challenges of politics and economics in creating a just and equitable society. He also explores the concept of progress itself, asking whether it is a linear process or whether there are setbacks and obstacles along the way.Overall, ''Is The World Growing Better?'' is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the state of the world in the early 20th century. Snowden’s writing is clear and concise, and his arguments are well-supported by evidence and analysis. The book remains relevant today as we continue to grapple with many of the same issues that Snowden addressed over a century ago.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
