EDUCATIONAL ASPECTS OF SOCIOLOGY 89
(Macmillan, 1905). The first president of the society was Mr. James Bryce; and among those who have already contributed papers to the society, or taken part in its discussions, are, in addi- tion to Mr. Galton, Mr. Bateson, Mr. Charles Booth, Professor Bosanquet, Dr. J. H. Bridges, Dr. Beattie Crozier, Professor Durkheim, Professor Geddes, Professor Hoffding, Mr. L. T. Hobhouse, Mr. J. A. Hobson, Mr. T. C. Horsfall, Dr. E. Hutchinson, Mr. Benjamin Kidd, Professor Loria, Dr. Maudsley, Dr. Mercier, Professor Muirhead, Mr. J. M. Robertson, Professor Karl Pearson, Professor Sadler, Mr. Bernard Shaw, Professor Sorley, Mr. H. G. Wells and Dr. Westermarck. It will be obvious, from the representative character of these names, that the society seeks to focus on the social problems, knowledge derived from every possible source. In other words, it is the aim of the society, not to advocate a policy, but to accumulate, organize, and integrate, sociological knowledge. 3
