USEFUL WORKS OF REFERENCE

The most complete bibliography is that published by the State Board of Charities of the State of New York (_Eugenics and Social Welfare Bulletin_ No. III, pp. 130, Albany, 1913).

An interesting historical review of eugenics, with critical comments on the literature and a bibliography of 100 titles, was published by A. E. Hamilton in the _Pedagogical Seminary_, Vol. XXI, pp. 28-61, March, 1914.
