Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Politics in the Human Interest presents the striking proposition
that by paying attention to what's been learned about human
behavior, we can develop a political agenda that is in the human
interest. Du Bois and Wright, editors of Applying Sociology: Making
a Better World, seek a synthesis of the disciplines by returning to
the bold conversation of August Comte, Lester Ward, Robert Lynd,
Erich Fromm, Abraham Maslow, Alvin Gouldner, Ernest Becker and
Alfred McClung Lee. As economist Kenneth Boulding once said, 'The
question for the social sciences is simply, what is better_and how
do we get there?' Politics in the Human Interest provides an
important foundation for the answer and explores the theoretical
foundation of a humanistic sociology. It returns to the original
progressive agenda_that knowledge about human behavior can be used
to create social progress and a better world. Politics in the Human
Interest is perfect for advanced undergraduate courses and graduate
courses as well as sociology professionals.
