Opis: Causes and Cures of Crime (Classic Reprint) - Mosby Thomas Speed

Excerpt from Causes and Cures of Crime<br><br>The cost of crime in the United States now amounts to one-third the total cost of the government, and the burden is yearly increasing. Crime is seven times more prevalent in this country now, in proportion to population, than it was sixty years ago. According to Professor Kellicott of Goucher College, one in every thirty persons in the United States is now defective or dependent, or both defective and dependent. These facts constitute the author's apology for this attempt to engage the public attention at this time, in this manner, and upon this subject.<br><br>When Blackstone wrote his commentaries upon the common law of England, he gave as one of his reasons for so doing a desire to epitomize, in a manner, and to popularize, an intricate but important branch of learning, and at the same time he expressed the belief that every gentleman ought to be familiar with the common law.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
