Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

""What Is True Civilization Or Means To Suppress The Practice Of Dueling: To Prevent Or To Punish Crimes And To Abolish The Punishment Of Death"" is a book written by James Sega. It is a comprehensive study of the concept of true civilization and the various means to achieve it. The book primarily focuses on the suppression of the practice of dueling, a prevalent social custom in the 19th century that was considered a symbol of honor and prestige. The author argues that the practice of dueling is not only barbaric but also a hindrance to the progress of society. The book also discusses the importance of preventing and punishing crimes and the need to abolish the punishment of death. The author believes that the death penalty is a cruel and inhumane punishment that does not serve its intended purpose of deterring crime. Instead, he suggests alternative forms of punishment that are more humane and effective in rehabilitating offenders. Overall, ""What Is True Civilization Or Means To Suppress The Practice Of Dueling: To Prevent Or To Punish Crimes And To Abolish The Punishment Of Death"" is a thought-provoking book that challenges the prevailing social norms of its time and advocates for a more civilized and humane society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
