Truman M. Post 
History as a Teacher of Social and Political Science 
An Address

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Again, social science is one of aggregate out-comes, and, ulti mate and gene1al results. Now nothing may be clearer, often, than such results and outcomes, when the details, many of them, are still in dispute. The battle of Waterloo, for instance, – nothin g can be stranger than the contradictions in regard to its details.
