- Publisher's half leather.
- Berlin: Deutsche Buch-Gemeinschaft, [1930]
Berlin: Deutsche Buch-Gemeinschaft, [1930]. First Edition.. Publisher's half leather.. A very good copy; some spotting to the cloth.. 8vo. There are numerous half tone plates.
An omnibus work that addresses the nurture, psychological well being, and education of young children. The rather poignant introduction describes a situation of perverse contradictions in attitudes toward children and child rearing in then present economic depression. The family, men, women, educators, physicians, and state are not blameless. Each bears a responsibility for the prevalent attitudes. The text is composed of essays by experts from medical, legal, and educational and human welfare professions. It is a most unusual book in that it is not a child rearing guide, but rather a well reasoned plea for generosity and compassion in providing a humane community through which children could achieve a level of beneficent adulthood.
