    Cover of 'Ideas Have Consequences' by Richard M. Weaver

    "Ideas Have Consequences" is a philosophical work that explores the societal and cultural impacts of ideas, arguing that the decline of Western society can be traced back to the rejection of absolute truth. The author posits that this rejection has led to moral relativism, materialism, and a culture of self-centeredness. He advocates for a return to traditional values and a recognition of universal truths as a means to restore balance and purpose to society.
