The Chief End Of Man (1897)

The Chief End of Man is a philosophical treatise written by George Spring Merriam and published in 1897. The book explores the fundamental question of human existence and purpose, examining the various perspectives and beliefs that have been put forth throughout history. Merriam draws on a wide range of sources, including religious texts, philosophical treatises, and scientific studies, to develop his argument that the ultimate goal of human life is to achieve a state of harmony with the universe and with one's own inner self. He argues that this can be accomplished through a combination of spiritual practice, ethical living, and intellectual inquiry. The Chief End of Man is a thought-provoking and insightful work that offers a unique perspective on the meaning of life and the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
