Edmond Szekely
COSMOS, MAN AND SOCIETY considers every field of human knowledge and presents the first complete synthesis that closely relates each part of life into a harmonious and intelligent whole, extending from the early history of man to modern cosmic science and including in its scope ethnology, medicine, world politics and economics, ethics and all human culture. The aim of Cosmos, Man and Society is to teach and make known the new science of Paneubiotics which shows the way to live the maximum good life in every respect and which will ultimately lead to the creation of a perfect human race. Szekely presents a visionary framework that seeks to reintegrate the fragmented domains of science, philosophy, ecology, and spirituality. Drawing on sources as diverse as ancient Essene texts, Eastern cosmologies, and Western metaphysics, Szekely articulates a comprehensive worldview-Paneubiotics-where cosmic order, human consciousness, and societal well-being are understood as inseparably linked. His method blends textual exegesis, comparative cosmology, and natural science, offering a bold synthesis that anticipates later developments in systems theory and deep ecology.This work occupies a unique place in 20th-century intellectual history, bridging perennial philosophy with ecological humanism. It challenges both reductionist materialism and abstract idealism by proposing a living, participatory cosmos in which human beings are active agents of harmony or dissonance. As a synthesis rooted in philological rigor and visionary insight, Cosmos, Man and Society remains an essential reference for scholars exploring integrative approaches to the human condition within the natural world.
