from a new standpoint. It recognizes that sex is a fundamental factor in 



the origin and development of social institutions and occupational activi- 

 ties, and that a number of social forms and forces are of sexual origin. 



After a preliminary paper in which the organic diflferences of the two sexes 

 are analyzed, there follows a series of studies on the relation of sex to social 

 feeling and stimulation, and the influence of sex in securing a system of social 

 control; the psychology of the maternal system of tribal organization; sex as a 

 factor in the dififerentiation of occupations in early society, and the relation of 

 woman to early industry and invention; the relation of sex to the origin of moral- 

 ity; the origin of exogamy; the origin and psychology of modesty and clothing. 



In the last two papers, on "The Adventitious Character of Woman" and 

 "The Mind of Woman and the Lower Races," modern woman is interpreted 

 from the standpoint of certain conventions and prejudices which emanate from 

 the fact of sex, and which have excluded her from full participation in the 

 activities of the "white man's world/' with the result that she develops a type of 

 mind and character not representative of the natural traits of her sex. 



Former treatises on the "woman question" have dealt in the main in a de* 

 scriptive way with the history of marriage, or at least only with the details of the 



carriage system, and have failed to present a theory which
