Excerpt from Sociology and Social Progress: A Handbook for Students of Sociology The problem of human welfare, before which all others seem trivial in comparison, is not to be understood without the widest attainable knowledge of things pertaining to man. Up to the present time the economist is undoubtedly the one who has made the most searching and the most effective study of this problem. But other light is needed and a wider view is necessary than the economist is in the habit of taking. The present volume is compiled for the purpose of presenting to the student, in convenient form, material for this wider view. It is based upon twelve years of college and university teaching. The selections presented are those which the compiler has found by experience to be the most instructive, the most stimulating, and the most thought-provoking. No attempt has been made to select only such passages as embody the compilers views, or even to select such as are invariably sound and accurate. The fact that a passage has proved brilliantly suggestive and provocative of serious inquiry has, in several cases, been the chief reason for including it. It is the hope of the compiler that this volume may prove useful both to the college student and to the general reader. In college classes it is designed to be used as supplementary to an elementary text-book, as collateral reading to a course of lectures, or as a basis for class-room discussions. The latter is by far the most effective method yet devised for the teaching of the social sciences, and in connection with this method the compiler ventures to hope that this volume may prove especially useful. The compiler wishes to express here his gratitude for the many courtesies which he has received from authors and publishers.

Cosmo Publications, 2006. First edition. Hardcover. New. Thomas Nixon Carver, the David A. Wellis Professor of Political Economy at the Harvard University compiled this extraordinary handbook which has remained a classic since its publication. He believed that some of the most significant contributions to our knowledge of society have been made not by writers who profess to be sociologists but by men who have turned their attention to those phases of social life which lie nearest their special field of inquiry. This belief is fully reflected in the contributors he selected for the book. The volume not only served as an introductory text to the discipline, but contained many innovative papers, which re-defined social research for years to come. Carver brought together the best possible overview of the contributions on sociology at his time. It gives a comprehensive overview of our field but it is also daringly innovative - reminiscent to some of the by now classical chapters, in terms of giving voice to new areas of investigations. Authors include leading sociologists as well as representatives of other social sciences The definitive resource on the leading areas of sociology and one of its most important interdisciplinary adventures A must read for faculty, graduate students, and undergraduates doing work in the field Contributors include Auguste Comte; J. H. W. Stuckenberg; L. F. Ward; John Fiske; S. N. Patten; Edward Robinson; H. T. Buckle; O. Peschel; Charles Darwin; Karl Pearson; Adam Smith; Benjamin Kidd; T. B. Macaulay; W. Bagehot; G. Tarde; Herbert Spencer; Henry Drummond; Francis Galton; A. C. Hall; W. Z. Ripley; Max Nordau; Aristotle; Machiavelli; J. S. Mill, etc. Printed Pages: 810.
