''The Contagion of Character: Studies in Culture and Success'' is a book written by Newell Dwight Hillis that explores the concept of character and its impact on success in various aspects of life. Hillis argues that character is not only a personal trait, but also a cultural phenomenon that can be transmitted from one person to another. He examines the role of character in areas such as business, politics, and religion, and provides examples of individuals who have succeeded or failed based on their character. The book also delves into the influence of culture on character formation, and the ways in which individuals can cultivate positive character traits. Overall, ''The Contagion of Character'' offers a thought-provoking analysis of the importance of character in achieving success, both personally and in society as a whole.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
