He states in the preface that the book does not tell you how this will be achieved: ?It contains no cut and dried solution. But ? it may help advertise the fact that there is a small body of people who think they see a ray of light in the darkness. ??. Today it can be read in its historical context.This book is a re-issue originally published in 1922. The language used and views portrayed are a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
