Publisher's Synopsis

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. Overall, Luxury and Waste of Life is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to examine their own values and priorities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
