About This Book
A series of reflective essays addressed to young people examines the moral and spiritual malaise afflicting modern youth and traces its roots in a skeptical, materialistic, and artificial civilization. The author inventories the intellectual and social inheritance left by an exhausted age, distinguishes currents within contemporary youth, and proposes a practical ideal centered on restoring human balance: simplicity, vitality, respect for the laws of life, and responsible action. The work combines diagnosis and counsel, urging young readers to cultivate inner strength and to repair social and moral shortcomings.
