In this, the third edition of a highly successful textbook first published in 1965, the author has taken the opportunity to critically evaluate some of the assumptions and generalizations made in the earlier editions because of the absence of any evidence constructed on sound foundations. The content of the work includes references and detailed accounts of recent work on population trends, the relative influences of heredity and environment on intelligence, the significance of early socialization and parent-child relationships in the subsequent development of the individual etc. The book also incorporates up-to-date statistical information. Where possible, in the self-imposed concentrated framework, existing aspects of social structure are placed in an historical and comparative context
