Social Adjustment is a book written by Scott Nearing and originally published in 1911. The book explores the concept of social adjustment, which refers to the ways in which individuals and societies adapt to changing social and economic conditions. Nearing argues that social adjustment is a necessary process for individuals and societies to maintain their well-being and prosperity.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the individual and explores the various factors that influence social adjustment, such as personality, education, and social environment. Nearing argues that individuals must be able to adapt to changing circumstances in order to succeed in life, and he provides practical advice for achieving social adjustment.The second part of the book focuses on society as a whole and examines the ways in which social institutions can promote or hinder social adjustment. Nearing argues that social institutions must be flexible and responsive to changing conditions in order to promote social adjustment and well-being.Overall, Social Adjustment is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of an important concept in sociology and psychology. It provides practical advice for individuals and policymakers alike, and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the dynamics of social change and adaptation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
