This book presents a state of society in which the intuitions are promoted to their proper supremacy over tradition and convention. It is an attempt to depict the condition of the world at a time when our own country shall have made such advance in the solution of the problems which harass the present, and shall be so relieved of all disabling artifices, social, political and religious, that individuals will be able, without penalty or reproach, to fashion their lives according to their own preferences, the sole external limitation being that imposed by the law of equal liberty for all.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
