For Dr. Allen prevention is a text and the making of sound citizens a sermon. In "Civics and Health" he sounds a slogan which should awaken every community in this country to its opportunities in municipal reform. Every teacher who reads this book will gain a new sense of duty in matters of hygiene and sanitation.
Civics and Health is enthrallingly interesting. It is humanized sociology. Cleaning up children by scientific illumination will appeal to every father and mother, every child lover who has any patriotism or desire to learn how we as a people are to make moral-reform agitations fruitful through health of American children, and so establish health of national life.—Boston Transcript.
This is one of the books we wish the law required every citizen to have in his house and to know by heart. Then, indeed, mankind would have made an immense stride forward.—Chicago Medical Recorder.
The book is alive from cover to cover. It breathes reform but not of the platform variety. It abounds in ugly facts but superabounds in the statement of best methods of getting rid of this ugliness. As claimed by the publishers, it is preëminently a book on "getting things done."—Hygiene and Physical Education, Springfield, Mass.
