Social Psychology by Ellis Freeman
1936
Weight: 1 lb
Method of Disposal: Donating
Another 18 years and this book will be 100 years old. Will it make it that long? Will I? There's a lot to love about old books. Their smell, the printing, the yellowing pages, the information stated with such confidence that in retrospect often seems silly, the basic truths that always seem to hold true. Some of them are better and more interesting than others, but I love to read social commentary of the times and think about how far we have or have not come. Sometimes I am sad to realize how much the mistakes of the past have effected our present, and I am scared to think about what the mistakes of now will cause as the damage ripples.
