Excerpt from The Sexual Instinct: Its Use and Dangers as Affecting Heredity and Morals; Essentials to the Welfare of the Individual, and the Future of the Race
"If it is possible to perfect mankind, the means of doing so will be found in the medical sciences." Descartes.
This book contains much plain talking, for which I offer no defence. Its justification will be found in the body of the work.
To see men give rein to their animal passions, subjecting themselves and others to so many risks of which they are ignorant, is intensely saddening.
Jeremy Taylor says: "It is impossible to make people understand their ignorance, for it requires knowledge to perceive it; and, therefore, he that can perceive it hath it not." Readers will pardon me for saying that my object is to make them understand their ignorance - to enable them to perceive it so that they may have it not.
The design of this work is to furnish the non-professional man with a sufficiently thorough knowledge of matters pertaining to the sexual sphere - knowledge which he cannot afford to be without.
Ever mindful of the saying of Huxley, that "knowledge does not go beyond phenomena," I have endeavored to convey this knowledge in language free as far as possible from technical terms and intelligible to laymen.
