"I have written this book with a single definite object - namely, to show that there is hope that something seemingly impossible, and yet indispensably necessary for the future welfare of mankind, can be achieved. That "something" is the re-establishment of the balance between the inner and the outer life of man, a balance that has been destroyed by many causes but chiefly through the mistakes of so-called Western Civilization." - from the Introduction J.G. Bennett's second published book, describing some background and approach to the work of G.I. Gurdjieff, originally published the month prior to Gurdjieff's death.
