The Darrow-Kennedy Debate: Is The Human Race Permanently Progressing Toward A Better Civilization? is a book written by John Curtis Kennedy in 1919. The book is based on a debate that took place between Kennedy and Clarence Darrow, a renowned lawyer, and social critic. The debate was centered around the idea of whether or not the human race is progressing towards a better civilization. Kennedy argued that the progress of the human race is inevitable and that we are constantly moving towards a better future. He believed that advancements in technology, science, and social structures would lead to a more prosperous and enlightened society. Darrow, on the other hand, was skeptical of this idea. He argued that progress is not always linear and that there are often setbacks and obstacles that hinder our advancement.The book provides a detailed account of the debate between Kennedy and Darrow, including their arguments and rebuttals. It also includes commentary from other prominent figures of the time, such as William James and John Dewey. The book is a fascinating exploration of the concept of progress and its implications for society. It is a thought-provoking read that is still relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
