Publisher's Synopsis

Mammo-Mania: The Apostacy Of The Age Unveiled is a book written by Anti-Mammon and published in 1843. The book is a scathing critique of the rampant materialism and greed that had taken hold of society during the Industrial Revolution. The author argues that the worship of Mammon, the biblical term for wealth and material possessions, has led to a moral decline and the abandonment of traditional values.Anti-Mammon traces the origins of Mammo-Mania to the rise of capitalism and the pursuit of profit at all costs. He argues that this has led to the exploitation of workers, the destruction of the environment, and the erosion of social cohesion. The book also takes aim at the Church, which the author accuses of being complicit in the spread of Mammo-Mania by promoting a prosperity gospel that equates material success with divine favor.Throughout the book, Anti-Mammon employs a fiery and impassioned tone, using biblical references and rhetorical flourishes to drive home his message. He calls on readers to reject the false idols of wealth and consumerism and to embrace a simpler, more spiritual way of life. The book was controversial in its time, but has since been recognized as a prescient warning about the dangers of unbridled capitalism and the need for a more ethical and sustainable approach to economic development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
