“It is intentionally provocative, but there will be many shrinking
women grateful to so fearless an asserter of their inmost thoughts.
They will be a minority, but they should be heard.”--_Leicester

+THE COMMON-SENSE OF THE WOMAN QUESTION.+ By MILLICENT MURBY.
Wrapper, 6_d._ net. Quarter canvas, gilt, 1_s._ net.
“This book ought certainly to make Mr. Belfort Bax readjust his views
as to women’s lack of power to form ‘an objective and disinterested
judgment,’ for a clearer, more moderate and more precise presentation
of the woman’s point of view than this of Miss Murby it would be
difficult to find. To those even who differ from her conclusions will
come many plain statements of fact which will bear thinking over.”--_T.
P.’s Weekly._
“We have read many books on the woman suffragist side, but have not
met one which is so forcibly and sensibly written. Miss Murby has the
acuteness to see that the voting is a mere surface question, and she
examines the roots of the problem, that is the fundamental relation of
women to society. We recommend the book for its reasonableness and good
temper.”

+THE LEGAL SUBJECTION OF MEN.+ An Answer to the Suffragettes. By E.
BELFORT BAX and Another. Wrapper, 6_d._ net. Quarter canvas, gilt,
1_s._ net.
_The Author in the Preface says_:--
“The women’s rights agitator has succeeded in inducing a credulous
public to believe that the female sex is groaning under the weight of
the tyranny of man. The facts show these individuals to be right in
one point, namely, that sex-injustice and sex-inequality exist; for
the facts show the said injustice and inequality to exist _wholly_ and
_solely_ in favour of women as against men.”
“The ‘oppressed’ woman does not appear so very ‘oppressed’ in these
pages. All interested in the woman’s suffrage movement should make a
point of studying this excellent book.”
_Dundee Advertiser._
+SEXUAL ETHICS.+ By Professor AUGUST FOREL, M.D., PH.D., LL.D. With
Introduction by Dr. C. W. Saleeby, F.R.S. (Edin.). _2nd edition._ Demy
8vo. Stiff wrapper, 1_s._ net. Cloth gilt, 2_s._ net.
The present work consists of an analysis of sexual morals as they
exist to-day, together with a variety of constructive proposals for
the future. It is a book which must be read by every social reformer
who realises that the first step on the road to progress is the
reconstruction of human morals.
“The author discusses frankly, but scientifically, and without
pruriency, the rights and wrongs of matters sexual.”
