Comparing the lived world with the ideal world, noted American philosopher novelist, poet, and literary critic George Santayana (1883-1952) seeks in this influential compilation of his earlier works to outline the ancient ideal of a well-ordered-life, one in which reason is the organizing force that recognizes the need to allocate science, religion, art, social concerns, and practical wisdom their proper role and appropriate emphasis within the fully developed human experience.
