What's Wrong With the World is an aptly titled treatise by one of the twentieth century's most memorable and prolific writers, G.K. Chesterton. In this work, Chesterton tackles a wide range of topics including education, government, big business, feminism, and more.

A steadfast champion of the working man, family, and faith, Chesterton eloquently opposes materialism, snobbery, and hypocrisy, along with any adversary of freedom and simplicity in modern society.

Culled from the thousands of essays he contributed to newspapers and periodicals over his lifetime, these critical works pulse with Chesterton's unique brand of clever commentary. As readable and rewarding today as when they were written over a century ago, these pieces offer his unparalleled analysis of contemporary ideals, incisive critique of modern efficiency, and humorous but heartfelt defense of the common man against trendsetting social assaults.
