By Charles H. McDermott and Charles Hubert McDermott

Book Overview

""The Gospel of Greed: Spirit of Commercialism, The Vital Controlling Force in Human Affairs"" is a book written by Charles Hubert McDermott in 1908. The book explores the concept of greed and its impact on human society, particularly in the realm of commerce. McDermott argues that the pursuit of material gain has become the primary driving force behind human behavior and that this has led to a culture of consumerism and commercialism. He examines the historical roots of this phenomenon, tracing it back to the rise of capitalism and the Industrial Revolution, and explores its implications for contemporary society. The book also offers insights into the psychological and spiritual dimensions of greed, arguing that it is a deeply ingrained human trait that must be understood and addressed if we are to create a more just and equitable world. Overall, ""The Gospel of Greed"" is a thought-provoking analysis of one of the most fundamental forces shaping human society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
