XVI643 pp. With the bookplate and stamp of Girton College. - Of the letters 'may be said that they were welcomed by the public as affording the earliest fullest and most specific information at critical moments of the campaign and if it should further be found that these same letters hastily written in the bivouac on the field of victory or in some hovel on the line of retreat have at the same time the merit of being among the most vivid and truthful pictures of war that have at any time been offered to the public the popularity they have attained would be accounted for Preface. hardcover

20769Printed for H. K. Lewis & Co. Ltd by Hazell Watson & Viney Ltd. London and Aylesbury. No date circa 1929 . 31 1pp. 8vo. Stapled without wraps. Drophead title. Offprint from Transactions of the Medico-Legal Society. In fair condition lightly aged central vertical fold rusted staples. 'No reasonable person' Riddell writes 'suggests the wholesale sterilisation of masses of lunatics and defectives. Only very moderate measures are proposed.' Riddell's suggestion is that 'in suitable cases subject to the consent of the Board of Control or some similar body' and with the consent of the subject lunatics and mental defectives be sterilised. He deals with three objections: that sterilisation constitutes an 'Interference with individual freedom' 'That sterilisation would lead to promiscuity and the spread of venereal disease' 'That sterilisation operations are dangerous.' Riddell's conclusion is that: 'Lunacy and mental deficiency are unpleasant subjects which most people are loth to face or discuss. The absence of any well-considered policy is apparent. … the cure interest and happiness of the individual lunatic or deficient are put before the general interest of the community. … Voluntary sterilisation would however make their task easier by enabling them to carry out their programme of restoring to the outside world as many lunatics and mental defectives as possible. It would also render easier the task of supervision in mental institutions. At the same time the public and relatives of these unfortunate people would have a measure of protection. Lunacy and mental deficiency must always be festering sores but the time has come when the whole subject requires careful consideration and statesmanlike attention.'
