Dynamic Sociology: Adaptation : reciprocal relations of man and the universe
The era of teleological or artificial progress has not yet begun. It may never begin, but, until it does so, society is as liable to succumb to an adverse wave of reaction, and suffer extinction, as is any race or species of animals or plants; and we know that this is constantly occurring. To overcome these manifold hindrances to human progress, to check this enormous waste of resources, to calm these rhythmic billows of hyper-action and reaction, to secure the rational adaptation of means to remote ends, to prevent the natural forces from clashing with the human feelings, to make the current of physical phenomena flow in the channels of human advantage -- these are some of the tasks which belong to the great art which forms the final or active department of the science of society -- this, in brief, is dynamic sociology. - Introduction.
