The Uses of Diversity: A Book of Essays

With Foreword by JSB Morse

“Have you ever seen a fellow fail at the high jump because he had not gone far enough back for his run? That is Modern Thought. It is so confident of where it is going to that it does not know where it comes from.”
– GK Chesterton, “The Uses of Diversity”

GK Chesterton is one of the most beloved authors of the 20th century and one of the most quotable writers of all time. His brilliance surpasses even his prolificacy.

His book of essays, “The Uses of Diversity” spans the gamut of topics from science, technology, the arts, pets, and those taboo topics religion and politics. He never hides from controversy and never shirks his responsibility to the truth.

Chesterton is witty, thoughtful, and clever throughout and though he wrote about timely subject matter, he was founded in tradition so his ideas remains as pertinent today as ever. His foundation in tradition makes his wisdom valuable even 100 years after he wrote.
