Content:
"This philosophy of social problems and their relationship to the social processes has been maintained throughout the text. Since it is impossible to treat in a single volume all the social problems that deserve attention, it has been necessary to make selections, and these have been made largely on the basis of major public interest. The authors are aware of their limitations and of the difficulties of making intelligent evaluations of the forces affecting the future of our society. It is their hope that the presentation of problems in this book will improve the abilities of the student to make effective adjustments to changing social conditions and to bring intelligence to bear upon the problems of social maladjustment"--Preface.
