Professor Snedden draws upon sociology in every phase of his interesting discussion of educational problems and his approach to these problems is sociologically sound. He starts with the group concept, and especially with the primary groups, the family and the neighborhood. Working from the concrete facts of group life, he discusses social forces and processes, social values, social efficiency, and social progress. Then he comes to his formulation of the sociological foundations of education in general and of each school subject. This book was written to aid in the training of teachers, wherein its discussions of educational problems, which are well-balanced and carefully based upon established data, will be especially useful.

This is a study of the central role of history in late-nineteenth century American legal thought. In the decades following the Civil War, the founding generation of professional legal scholars in the United States drew from the evolutionary social thought that pervaded Western intellectual life on both sides of the Atlantic. Their historical analysis of law as an inductive science rejected deductive theories and supported moderate legal reform, conclusions that challenge conventional accounts of legal formalism Unprecedented in its coverage and its innovative conclusions about major American legal thinkers from the Civil War to the present, the book combines transatlantic intellectual history, legal history, the history of legal thought, historiography, jurisprudence, constitutional theory, and the history of higher education.
