By Arthur Hazard Dakin

Book Overview

""Man The Measure: An Essay On Humanism As Religion"" is a thought-provoking book written by Arthur Hazard Dakin. The book explores the concept of humanism as a religion and its impact on society. Dakin argues that humanism, with its emphasis on reason, ethics, and individualism, has become a powerful force that shapes our beliefs and values.
