Introduction to the Study of the Dependent, Defective, and Delinquent Classes (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of the Dependent, Defective, and Delinquent Classes

Tms book is an elementary introduction to the systematic study of the nature, condition, and social relations of dependents, defectives, and delinquents. The theoretical discussion describes, defines, and explains the facts in a certain group of phenomena in associated life. Its purpose is to promote an understanding of the reality under consideration, and its goal is knowledge. The later parts of the treatise are chiefly practical. They deal with social conduct, with institutions and organizations for better ment, alleviation, and correction. We seek the ethical basis of charity, the ideals of philanthropy, and the social mechanism for attaining in larger measure what ought to be. Social institutions are described; their adaptation to ends is judged and valued; better methods are proposed according to the teachings of experience.
