Excerpt from The Family and SocietyPhases of Sex and the Family is left for the last of the book. This chapter deals rather minutely with the origin of sex and its place in social relations, the justification for the appear ance of the chapter in a book of this kind is to be found, if for no other reason, in the great interest in eugenics. Dr. Gillette has summa rized in an interesting way the discussion on sex origin and in doing so has performed a service that will be appreciated by those follow ing the trend of eugenic discussion.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
