Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of the Dependent, Defective and Delinquent Classes Masses indeed: and yet, singular to say, if, with an effort of imagination, thou follow them, over broad France into their clay hovels, into their garrets and hutches, the masses consist all of units. Every unit of whom has his own heart and sorrows; stands covered there with his own skin, and if you prick him, he will bleed. Dreary, languid do these struggle in their obscure remoteness, their hearth cheerless, their diet thin. For them in this world rises no Era of Hope. Untaught, uncomforted, unfed. Especially it is an old truth, that wherever huge physical evil is, there, as the parent and origin of it, has moral evil to a proportionate extent been. Carlyle. I.

Nurses of the sick, physicians to the insane, and secretaries of charity organizations must find their discipline in the actual work of their offices and in special schools for technical prepara tion. It is here our effort and aim to give educated leaders of society such a method of study and such codified results of past study and experience that they may think effectively and act wisely. Those who shape and direct public opinion, and who are inspired by philanthropic purpose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
