First And Last Things is a philosophical treatise written by the renowned author H.G. Wells. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part exploring the nature of reality, the universe, and humanity's place within it. Wells delves into topics such as the origins of the universe, the nature of time and space, the purpose of life, and the existence of God.The second part of the book focuses on the human condition, examining the complexities of human nature, the role of individuality, the importance of education, and the role of art and literature in shaping society. Wells argues that humanity must strive for progress and enlightenment, and that education and knowledge are the keys to achieving this goal.Throughout the book, Wells presents his ideas in a clear and accessible manner, making complex philosophical concepts understandable to the layperson. He draws on a wide range of sources, including science, religion, and literature, to support his arguments and provide a comprehensive view of the human experience.First And Last Things is a thought-provoking and insightful work that continues to be relevant today, offering a unique perspective on the human condition and the nature of reality.After I had studied science and particularly biological science for some years, I became a teacher in a school for boys. I found it necessary to supplement my untutored conception of teaching method by a more systematic knowledge of its principles and methods, and I took the courses for the diplomas of Licentiate and Fellow of the London College of Preceptors which happened to be convenient for me. These courses included some of the more elementary aspects of psychology and logic and set me thinking and reading further.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
