Yes, I believe that the time will come when the world will be
practically free from pain and suffering. But there is one exception.
I do not believe that we will ever be able entirely to eliminate the
_tragedies of the heart_. For our physical ills, which will be few in
number, there will be a socialized medical profession; everywhere
there will be free hospitals and convalescent homes. The unemployment
problem will be dealt with by the State, and dealt with so that there
will be no unemployment problem. There will be work for everybody and
everybody will do the work which he finds most congenial. But the
State, I fear, will be able to do nothing in affairs of the heart.
When John loves Mary with every fiber of his soul, and Mary remains
completely indifferent, then no State physician and no Government
official will be able to offer any balm or consolation to poor John.
And if Mary loves Robert, and Robert behaves so that he breaks Mary's
heart, then no official glue will put it together and no convalescent
home will make it whole.
Yes, I believe that love pangs and tragedies of the heart will cause
mortal men and women suffering even under the most perfect social
regime. But I also believe that these pangs will be less acute, that
the suffering will be less cruel than it is now.
Proper ideas about love, freer intercourse between the sexes, a normal
and regular sex life, a saner attitude towards many things which are
now unjustly considered shameful or criminal will, to a large degree,
prevent the heart tragedies and facilitate their cure where they
cannot be prevented.
And it is the duty of everybody who loves mankind to study the various
phases of human sexuality and help to spread sane and humane ideas on
the subject of Sex and Love.
The author trusts that WOMAN: HER SEX AND LOVE LIFE will help, in some
slight degree, in spreading healthy, sane and honest ideas about sex
among the men and women of America.

SEXUAL TRUTHS
VERSUS
SEXUAL LIES, MISCONCEPTIONS AND EXAGGERATIONS
By WILLIAM J. ROBINSON, M.D.
This book effectually demolishes the numerous lies and senseless
exaggerations which dabblers in sexology, either through ignorance or
design, are offering to the public, and which are responsible for so
much physical misery and mental agony. In Dr. Robinson's best vein:
clear, concise and incisive. With each sledge-hammer blow of his logic
a lie is demolished, with each turn of the rays of reason a dark place
is illumined, with each dialectic pull a century-old superstition is
uprooted.
Contains several important articles from the pens of the world's
greatest sexologists.
