Excerpt from Introduction to Political Science

At the present time no field of knowledge is growing more rapidly into favour, both in the colleges and universities, and among thinking people in general, than that of the social science. Looking to the past, they are linked with the whole process of biologic and psychologic evolution, and trace the origin and development of human institutions and ideas. Dealing with the present, they describe the organization and activities of those social groups in which we all live. Looking to the future, they open up the important political, economic, and social problems that future generations must solve.

Within this general field probably no subdivision so happily combines material of academic interest to the student and possibilities of practical application, as does political science. The state is the greatest institution that man has created, and its scope of activities promises to be increasingly extensive as society becomes more complex. It seems, therefore, that there is need for a book that will give a general outline of political science, viewing the state from the standpoint of past development and present conditions. For the special student in this department of knowledge it will serve as a background for more specialized work in its various divisions; for the general reader it will open up the important questions with which, in modern democracies, all good citizens should be familiar. There is an especial need for a text-book in political science for college and university classes, and in the arrangement and treatment of material in this volume that end has been constantly kept in mind. The references at the head of each chapter will suggest wider reading and open up the general literature of the subject.

This volume aims to add little to the sum total of human knowledge.
