In an age of rapid technological change and social upheaval, M.V.C. Jeffreys' Personal Values in the Modern World presents a searching inquiry into the moral and spiritual foundations that underpin human existence in contemporary society. The book argues that the erosion of traditional values has left individuals adrift in a fragmented world — a tension powerfully symbolised by the puzzle-piece imagery on its cover — and instructs readers on how to reclaim a coherent and purposeful personal philosophy. Jeffreys, a distinguished British educationalist, draws on philosophy, theology, and social thought to illustrate how personal values are not merely private concerns but the very sinews that bind a healthy society together. Written with lucid conviction and scholarly authority, this Pelican Original chronicles the struggle of modern men and women to find meaning amid materialism and moral relativism. For anyone who has ever questioned what truly matters in life, Jeffreys' measured yet urgent argument leaves one wondering whether the pieces of the puzzle can ever be made whole again.
