Society: Its Origin and Development
Society: Its Origin and Development is an introductory textbook of sociology by Henry K. Rowe, an American teacher of history and social science. Following the method set out in his preface, he studies social life as a biologist studies growth, beginning with the characteristics of group life and then following a child outward through widening circles of association: the family, its foundations, history and home life; the rural community, with its occupations, schools, government, morals and church; the city; and the life of the nation. Each chapter ends with reading references, and the book reflects the reforming optimism of American social science in the Progressive Era. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
