Revival: A Philosophy of Social Progress (1920) by Edward Johns Urwick Pdf
This book was originally written with a double purpose; The first reason was to introduce students to a conception of a social philosophy which should be definitely linked to modern sociology, and not to be treated as a mere outgrowthof the older physical philosophy. The second reason, was to establish a new position in regard to the philosophical conception of social change – a position in opposition to that usually assumed both by the sociologist and by the philosopher.

A Philosophy of Social Progress (Classic Reprint) by E. J. Urwick Pdf
Excerpt from A Philosophy of Social Progress I will make bold to state my heresies dogmatically. Sociology is commonly described as the science of social life. I do not believe that there is or can be any science of social life; nor do I believe that sociology is or can be a science. There is a little scientific knowledge of some few of the conditions under which we socii live, of some few of the activities in which our social life is manifested. What passes for sociology is a collection of generalizations of very varying value; and it is inevitable that most social generalizations shall be at once more or less dignified guesses, and more or less disguised ex pressions of the hopes and fears, the prejudices and beliefs, of their originators. There may, however, be a philosophy of social life - or rather, of social change; but this will be transcendental, of course, and will always be very closely analogous to a religious faith. It will vary from age to age, just as the forms of faith do; that is to say, the expression of its dominant conceptions will vary.

All truly religious movements are informed by a search for spiritual renewal, often signaled by an attempt to return to what are seen as the original, undiluted values of earlier times. Elements of this process are to be seen in the history of almost all modern religious revivals, both inside and outside the mainstream denominations.
Revival: Bergson and His Philosophy (1920) by J. Alexander Gunn Pdf
The stir caused in the civilised world by the writings of Bergson, particularly during the past decade, is evidenced by the volume of the stream of exposition and comment which has flowed and is still flowing. If the French were to be tempted to set up, after the German manner, a Bergson-Archiv they would be in no embarrassment for material, as the Appendix to this book – limited though it wisely is – will show. Mr. Gunn, undaunted by all this, makes a further, useful contribution in his unassuming but workmanlike and well-documented account of the ideas of the distinguished French thinker. It is designed to serve as an introduction to Bergson’s philosophy for those who are making their first approach to it, and as such it can be commended.
The Goals of Social Policy by Martin I A Bulmer,Jane Lewis,David Piachaud Pdf
First published in 1989, The Goals of Social Policy is an invaluable text that will give students an admirable introduction to the central concerns of the study of social policy. It asks what have been the traditional concerns of social policy as a subject of academic study, and what its context should be in the changed political environment of twenty-first century. Three issues receive close attention for their future implications: social policy and the family (focusing on gender), social policy and community (including race and public order issues) and social policy and the economy. Retrospective chapters examine the relationship between social policy and social research, social theory and social work. The book will appeal particularly to students of social policy, social work, sociology and political science, as well as to those in applied fields such as criminology, health studies, education and women’s studies with interests in social policy. It will also appeal to the general reader interested in keeping abreast of the latest thinking about social policy.

Science and Social Progress by Herbert Wallace Schneider Pdf
Excerpt from Science and Social Progress: A Philosophical Introduction to Moral Science "Give us a guide," cry men to the philosopher. "We would escape from these miseries in which we are entangled. A better state is ever present to our imaginations, and we yearn after it; but all our efforts to realize it are fruitless. We are weary of perpetual failures; tell us by what rule we may attain our desire..." "Have a little patience," returns the moralist, "and I will give you my opinion as to the mode of securing this greatest happiness to the greatest number." "There again," exclaim the objectors, "you mistake our requirement. We want something else than opinions. We have had enough of them. Every futile scheme for the general good has been based on opinion; and we have no guarantee that your plan will not add one to the list of failures. Have you discovered a means of forming an infallible judgment? If not, you are, for aught we know, as much in the dark as ourselves. True, you have obtained a clearer view of the end to be arrived at; but concerning the route leading to it, your offer of an opinion proves that you know nothing more certain than we do. We demur to your maxim because it is not what we wanted - a guide; because it dictates no sure mode of securing the desideratum; because it puts no veto on a mistaken policy; because it permits all actions - bad, as readily as good - provided only the actors believe them conducive to the prescribed end. Your doctrines of 'expediency' or 'utility' or 'general good' or 'greatest happiness to the greatest number' afford not a solitary command of a practical character. Let but rulers think, or profess to think, that their measures will benefit the community, and your philosophy stands mute in the presence of the most egregious folly, or the blackest misconduct. This will not do for us. We seek a system that can return a definite answer when we ask - 'Is this act good?'" This eternal demand confronts us to-day with a more awful urgency than ever before. The times are bristling with urgent issues. Men and women are compelled to face them and to decide. There are not merely the whole host of petty personal problems, nor merely the familiar combats of local politics, nor even the greater issues of national life and polity.
