Ignorance Is the Great Curse!

Do you know, for instance, the scientific difference between love
and passion? Human life is full of hideous exhibits of
wretchedness due to ignorance of sexual normality.

Stupid, pernicious prudery long has blinded us to sexual truth.
Science was slow in entering this vital field. In recent years
commercialists eyeing profits have unloaded many unscientific and
dangerous sex books. Now the world’s great scientific minds are
dealing with this subject upon which human happiness often
depends. No longer is the subject tabooed among intelligent
people.

We take pleasure in offering to the American public, the work of
one of the world’s greatest authorities upon the question of
sexual life. He is August Forel, M.D., Ph.D., LL.D., of Zurich,
Switzerland. His book will open your eyes to yourself and explain
many mysteries. You will be better for this knowledge.

Every _professional man and woman_, those dealing with social,
medical, criminal, legal, religious and educational matters will
find this book of immediate value. Nurses, police officials,
heads of public institutions, writers, judges, clergymen and
teachers are urged to get this book at once.

The subject is treated from every point of view. The chapter on
“love and other irradiations of the sexual appetite” is a
profound exposition of sex emotions—Contraceptive means
discussed—Degeneracy exposed—A guide to all in domestic
relations—A great book by a great man.
