Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Elementary Politics
Even if these social impulses were weaker than they are, man would be compelled by necessity to live a social life. N o creature is more helpless, or less able to make a living, than a solitary man.
Seeing that society exists by nature and necessity, we are prepared to find that it has existed since men made their first appearance on this planet. Such is, in fact, the testimony of history. Here and there an individual or a family has subsisted apart from the rest of the human race. But the general rule is that men live, and always have lived, in social groups.
