About this book
In a world teetering on the brink of intellectual collapse, "The Marching Morons" by C. M. Kornbluth explores the chilling consequences of a society that prioritizes ignorance over enlightenment. Set against the backdrop of post-war disillusionment, this science fiction novella presents a stark vision of a future where anti-intellectualism reigns supreme and the populace is alarmingly uninformed. Kornbluth's incisive narrative critiques the dangers of complacency and the erosion of critical thought, challenging readers to confront the implications of a declining intellect. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this thought-provoking work serves as a cautionary tale, urging a reevaluation of societal values in the face of overwhelming mediocrity.
