Sobre IBD

A book of modern social inquiry has a shape that is somewhat sharply defined. It begins as a rule with an analysis, with statistics, tables of population, decrease of crime among Congregationalists, growth of hysteria among policemen, and similar ascertained facts; it ends with a chapter that is generally called 'The Remedy.' It is almost wholly due to this careful, solid, and scientific method that 'The Remedy' is never found. (excerpt from 'What’s Wrong with the World')
