The Call of the Twentieth Century is a book written by David Starr Jordan, an American educator and ichthyologist. It was first published in 1902 and is a collection of essays that explore the major social and political issues of the time. The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different aspect of the ""call"" of the twentieth century. The first part discusses the impact of science and technology on society, arguing that these advancements are essential for progress but must be used responsibly. The second part examines the role of education in shaping the future, emphasizing the importance of a well-rounded education that includes both practical skills and a strong moral foundation. The third and final part of the book addresses the need for social reform, particularly in the areas of labor rights and women's suffrage. Jordan argues that these issues are crucial for the progress of society and that they must be addressed in order to create a more just and equitable world. Throughout the book, Jordan draws on his own experiences as an educator and scientist to support his arguments. He also includes numerous examples and anecdotes to illustrate his points, making the book both informative and engaging. Overall, The Call of the Twentieth Century is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the major issues facing society at the turn of the century. It remains relevant today as a reminder of the ongoing need for progress and reform in all areas of life.Democracy does not mean equality--just the reverse of this, it means individual responsibility, equality before the law, of course--equality of opportunity, but no other equality save that won by faithful service. That social system which bids men rise must also let them fall if they cannot maintain themselves. To choose the right man means the dismissal of the wrong. The weak, the incompetent, the untrained, the dissipated find no growing welcome in the century which is coming. It will have no place for unskilled laborers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
