"The Mind in the Making: The Relation of Intelligence to Social Reform" by James Harvey Robinson, is an exploration of the connection between how people think and fixing society's problems. It argues that changing the way we understand things can help get rid of bad things in society, pushing for us to think in new ways, leaving behind old biases. The story says that smart thinking, if it's not held back by old ideas, can solve big problems, such as war and unfairness. The author argues that the way we currently think is not good enough, because the beliefs on which they are are based are outdated. He asks people to begin questioning the origins of what they believe, as the way to make real change in society, is to think more scientifically and logically.
