About This Item
New York: Macmillan Company, 1970. hardcover. Book VG: mild toning/offset to endpapers, mild shelf wear, text unmarked, binding tight/DJ G: age toning, rubbing, cup ring front cover, stain rear cover, NOT clipped. 8vo 203pp. sixth printing. From front flap: "An enormous abyss separates the concrete reality of the modern world from those moral principles which everyone more or less professes." This, Ignace Lepp charges in his new book, is the cause of the profound moral crisis modern man now faces. This leading French thinker, who is both priest and practicing psychotherapist, goes on to state that present-day moralists are inattentive to the changes that have taken place in the human psyche in recent times. One result is a confusion of moralities. And in seeking a "new morality" Dr. Lepp does not wish to add another. Instead he sets out to find one which will meet the needs of laymen, believers and unbelievers as well. To establish such a morality the author calls upon his experiences in psychology and religion, as a former Marxist, and as a Catholic priest." #02461.
