(2) That mankind, as such, dating from the grant of conscious freedom, is in an early stage of evolution, having but recently risen from an animal ancestry; that man is unfinished, and that his present condition is a natural consequence of his immaturity. Contents: Outlook on the Universe; The Effort of Evolution; The Coming of Man; The Development of Man; The Destiny of Man; The Best of All Possible Worlds; The Love of the World; Man's Ascent; and Transcendental Man." .

Sobre Ainsworth Books
Ainsworth Books was for many years a bricks and mortar store in Vancouver, BC. When we acquired the store, we moved to a location in Delta. After three years we moved the stock home and started operation as an online, by appointment only operation. I have worked with books my whole adult life and enjoy giving recommendations.
