The Psychic Factors of Civilisation is a book written by Lester Ward, an American botanist, paleontologist, and sociologist. The book explores the psychological and emotional factors that contribute to the development and progress of human civilization. Ward argues that the key to understanding the evolution of society lies not in material factors, such as technology or resources, but in the mental and emotional states of individuals and groups.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of human psychology and its impact on civilization. Ward discusses topics such as the role of imagination and creativity in cultural development, the importance of social cohesion and cooperation, and the influence of religion and spirituality on human behavior. He also explores the concept of individual and collective consciousness, and the ways in which these states of mind shape our perception of reality and our interactions with others.Throughout the book, Ward draws on examples from history and anthropology to illustrate his points, and offers insights into the ways in which different cultures have approached these issues. He also offers practical advice for individuals and societies looking to foster positive psychological and emotional states, and to create a more harmonious and prosperous civilization.Overall, The Psychic Factors of Civilisation is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the complex interplay between psychology, culture, and civilization. It offers a unique perspective on the factors that have shaped human history, and provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing contemporary societies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
