Abstract
PROF. MURCHISON does not intend his book to be used as a text-book, though according to him it may be so used by those who “are not forced to lead the life of formal quizmasters”. He is worried by the barrenness of much of so-called social psychology and has attempted to make it more concrete. He considers in turn diverse subjects such as birthcontrol, community justice, the social contract theory, socialism, anarchy, democracy, and others, from their psychological aspects. His treatment, however, is too slight to be of substantial value.
