Abstract
LESS ambitious than some of the volumes and pamphlets which in the last year or two have discussed the problem of world order after the War, Prof. C. B. Fawcett's book is likely to commend itself particularly to scientific workers. It contains no constitution for a world State or even a plan for the establishment of world unity. It is concerned with the foundations on which a world order can be based rather than with the manner in which the building is to be erected. The approach has the same scientific character as that which distinguished Prof. J. T. Shotwell's “The Renunciation of War as an Instrument of National Policy” a decade and a half ago.
