In the book "Are Men Equal?" by Henry Alonzo Myers, the writer very wisely turns to literature rather than to science for confirmation, of human equality. Science, he insists, is neutral on the subject; the evolutionary appeal to natural inequality, survival, success, and the like is question-begging, and altogether anarchic in its full practical implication, since life is riddled with contingency and no common standard can be agreed upon. The writer Karl Brandt's book "Reconstruction of World Agriculture," covers a great deal of territory. The term reconstruction is used to include post-war food relief, the rehabilitation of agriculture in war-torn countries, and post-war adjustments in agriculture around the world.
