~Social Problems, A Study of Everyday Social Conditions~

By EZRA THAYER TOWNE, Ph.D.
Professor of Economics and Political Science, Carleton College

_$1.00_

"A carefully written record and analysis of the growth in modern society
of the attempt to deal intelligently with social problems, such, for
instance, as immigration, unemployment, divorce, liquor, conservation,
and so on. Dr. Towne has carried out this task with excellent judgment
and intelligence. A valuable book for any library."--_Outlook._

"A teacher would find this book admirable for private study; a solitary
student with its aid might go far toward mastering these
subjects."--_Boston Transcript._

"Professor Towne of Carleton College has rendered good public service in
furnishing the best introduction to the study of present day social
conditions which has yet appeared for the use of high school and
undergraduate college students. Up to date, well proportioned,
progressive in attitude and spirit, yet conservatively sound in
judgment, it can scarcely fail to fulfil its purpose to give to all who
study it a 'better understanding of our own times' and proof of 'the
possibility of wise, sane, constructive social action.'"--_Survey._

"Prof. Towne aided by a lucid style and the ability to make statistics
interesting has stripped the subjects he deals with to their barest
necessities and has packed into the book the kind of information that
will stimulate to further study and research those who are at all
interested in strengthening civilization where evil conditions sap its
vitality."--_Philadelphia Press._
