By E.J. Urwick

Book Overview

Luxury and Waste of Life is a book written by Edward Johns Urwick and published in 1908. The book explores the idea of luxury and its impact on society. Urwick argues that luxury is a waste of life, as it encourages people to focus on material possessions instead of more meaningful pursuits. He also argues that luxury creates a divide between the rich and the poor, leading to social unrest and inequality. The book is a critique of the consumerist culture of the time, and urges readers to focus on more important things in life, such as education, art, and social justice.
