Written in *1955* - "Our great Western civilisation, which has created the marvels we now enjoy, has only succeeded in creating them at the cost of corresponding ills. The order and harmony of the Western world... demand the elimination of a prodigious mass of noxious by-products which now contaminate the globe. The first thing we see as we travel around the world is our own filth, thrown into the face of mankind."

Horrendously dated attitudes in places - but read between the lines, and the *intention* is impressively contemporary. Written, as this was, in the early 50s - and talking mostly about the 30s and 40s so far - it's trying to convey through the language of the times a concept not too far off being "woke".
It's still pretty racist in places, mind.
