A brilliant college professor is outraged at current trends in vocationalism and is single-mindedly determined to restore the Humanities. A conscientous student, searching for wisdom, discovers a terrible truth that reveals his true priorities.
Notes: "The Higher Men" is a versatile book that can be read as a sheer thriller story or utilized as a classroom text for English, Philosophy, and Psychology courses. The novel is so composed as to generate a dialectical process for discussion of formal, academic ideas encouraging the Socratic method.
