Abstract

Social problems arise from social institutions and differ from scientific and political problems, proposed solutions look to sundry devices to make institutions "work" despite difficulties; problems indicate changes in habits and customs of group, accompanying technical advances; data of social problems invite study of social change and suggest solution of problems to be found in expediting these changes.
