Human Nature and Its Remaking (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

In the preface to this 1918 work, Hocking writes that the object of the book is the quest for the principles of educating, civilizing, converting, and ultimately saving the human being through a new method of philosophical and religious interpretation.  He explores the notions of human instinct, will, and the senses of justice and art—with final chapters dedicated to a Christianity in which human will to power can find fulfillment.
