Pure Sociology: A Treatise On The Origin And Spontaneous Development Of Society is a book written by Lester Frank Ward and first published in 1903. In this book, Ward presents his theory of sociology, which is based on the idea that society is a product of natural laws and processes, rather than the result of divine intervention or human design. Ward argues that society is a complex system that has evolved over time, and that it can be understood through a scientific study of its origins and development.Ward’s theory of pure sociology is grounded in the principles of evolution and biology, and he draws on the work of Charles Darwin and Herbert Spencer to support his arguments. He contends that society is a natural phenomenon that can be studied and understood in the same way that scientists study the natural world.The book is divided into two parts. The first part explores the origins of society, including the role of social instincts, language, and culture in its development. The second part focuses on the spontaneous development of society, including the emergence of social structures, institutions, and systems of government.Ward’s ideas were controversial at the time of publication, as they challenged traditional views of society as a product of divine intervention or human design. However, his work was influential in the development of modern sociology, and he is considered one of the founding fathers of American sociology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
