Excerpt from Poverty and Its Vicious Circles
In a Monograph entitled Vicious Circles In Disease, first published in 1911, the Author drew attention to the important role played by the morbid process known as the Vicious Circle in the aggravation and fatality of disease, and showed how a study of such Circles contributed to accuracy both of diagnosis and of treatment.
That study awakened an interest in the influence exerted by the same process on social disorders and more especially on poverty - the most widespread and pernicious of them all. Hence the origin of this Volume, which it is hoped may prove a helpful contribution to the philosophy and relief of poverty.
Since the publication of the first Edition the most calamitous war known to history has cast its shadow over many of the fairest regions of the earth, leaving behind it an aggravation of poverty and misery which can only be made good by long years of patient industry and economy.
