Abstract
THIS book calls for but a brief reference in these columns. It consists of a series of sketches of social and legislative changes which have taken place during the Victorian era, and points to some of the causes of these transformations. Education receives a fair share of attention, but the transforming influences of science occupy only a single chapter of sixteen pages.
Social Transformations of the Victorian Age.
