Psychiatry and Sin

Lind, John E. | May 2, 1923 issue

The article discusses books like "The Kingdom of Evils," by E.E. Southard and Mary Jarrett. It is difficult to avoid the personal note when one comes to evaluate a posthumous work. Southard died so recently that his status as a psychiatrist and sociologist cannot yet be known. Certain it is that his services to society were great. His was the sort of personality that permeated his work to the extent that it is difficult to separate the two. Charming in his friendships, bitter in his enmities, taciturn and garrulous by turns, he exhibited that cyclothymic reaction which he alludes to in his present book and which has been found associated with brilliance and inferiority-seldom with mediocrity.
