Volume 1:

The Dance of Civa

Collum

Originally published in 1927.

"It has substance and thought to it." Spectator

"A very interesting account of the work of Sir Jagadis Bose." Oxford Magazine

This essay suggests that recognition of the ceaseless flow of the Dance of Civa (Life and Death) is the most promising cure for the misunderstandings that have arisen from a Western habit of assuming that conventional categories have tangible existence.

Quo Vadimus?

Glimpses of the Future

E E Fournier d’Albe

Originally published in 1925.

"A wonderful vision of the future. A book that will be talked about." Daily Graphic

"Interesting and singularly plausible" Daily Telegraph

This volume discusses the possible advances of life on earth and asks whether a new race will arise or whether the earth will remain the dominant planet in the solar system for human life.

Arthur Keith

F C S Schiller
