from the Foreword: Possibly the heartless treatment of children,
from the practice of infanticide and abandonment through to the
neglect, the rigors of swaddling, the purposeful starving, the
beatings, the solitary confinement, and so on, was and is only one
aspect of the basic aggressiveness and cruelty of human nature, of
the inbred disregard of the rights and feelings of others.
Children, being physically unable to resist aggression, were the
victims of forces over which they had no control, and they were
abused in many imaginable and some almost unimaginable ways by way
of expressing conscious or more commonly unconscious motives of
their elders... The present volume abounds in evidence of all
kinds, from all periods and peoples. The story is monotonously
painful, but it is high time that it should be told and that it
should be taken into account...
