Critics’ Reviews

“The format of this book combines the virtues of both text and anthology of primary readings. Morton’s introductions to each section of the book will prove invaluable to the student; he not only gives lucid and nicely organized expositions of the views of the authors but also puts those views into the context of the issues which were current when the authors were writing. In this way the historical continuity and developmental character of the theories discussed in preserved and indeed illuminated.”

“This is a useful selection of historical material, with illuminating commentary. It fills a real gap in the literature.”
