Abstract

"It is only within very recent years that the study of Human Society has been undertaken in a really scientific manner. It is true that the social problems have been studied and ideas suggested and discussed for their solution since the very beginning of social organization, for nowhere has there been found a state of society so perfect that all members are completely satisfied with their well-being under it...The study of crime is a part of the science of sociology and must be made according to the same methods as apply to all other kinds of social phenomena"--Introduction, page 1-3.
