About This Book
A series of essays arguing that truth is the foundational moral force shaping character and conduct, insisting that belief must be externalized in consistent action. It contrasts honest error with deliberate untruth, condemns lying as corrosive to business, politics, and conscience, and advises that wealth and success are secondary to self-mastery and integrity. Religious movements are presented as containing partial truths that endure in proportion to their core verities. Practical chapters urge courage in facing ingratitude, tolerance toward others, timely reform and prevention of avoidable harms, and faithful keeping of promises as daily habits of truthful living.
