Revival: The Family (1931)

This book is a sociological study of the institution of marriage in all its possible forms and a discussion of family and of kinship.

What were marriage and the family in the "dim red dawn of man"? How have they changed and evolved? What is their probable future? This clear and comprehensive book, written by a leading sociologist, answers these questions with a wealth of material, from a thoroughly modern point of view, and without traditional prejudices.
