Baldwin, James Mark. Social and ethical interpretations in mental development: a study on social psychology. *$2.60. Macmillan.
“The whole argument of Professor Baldwin’s book is that society is a product of self-consciousness; that it depends in all phases of its evolution upon the development of the self-thought. Accordingly, he finds the matter of social organization to be thoughts; and he denies that animal associations constitute true societies, since animals do not possess self-consciousness.”—Am. J. Soc.
“In spite of all criticisms, however, Professor Baldwin’s book is an invaluable one to every student of sociology, and it remains, up to the present, the only systematic attempt in the English language to apply modern genetic and functional psychology to the interpretation of social organization and evolution.” Charles A. Ellwood.

“It is a book for students, and should be approached in a purely studious spirit, as the matter will require gradual assimilation and cannot well be hastily scanned.”
