| Summary | "Society: Its Origin and Development" by Henry K. Rowe is a sociological treatise written in the early 20th century. The work serves as an introduction to the fundamentals of sociology, aiming to analyze human society and its evolution through various social formations, including the family, rural, urban, and national communities. The author emphasizes the need for a practical understanding of social life, addressing the dynamics of human relationships and their implications for social betterment. The opening of the book establishes Rowe's view on sociology as a science rooted in observable human interactions. He likens the study of social life to biology and stresses that understanding society requires examining concrete examples of social behavior and organization. Rowe outlines the characteristics of social life, including activity, association, control, and change, arguing that these forces shape human experiences and relationships. This foundation suggests a structured approach to understanding sociology, aiming to make the subject accessible and relevant for a broader audience, particularly students and social reformers.
