Chapter 7, in which Dr. Densmore examines the theories of Charles Godfrey Leland and Edward Carpenter as to an alternate sex, or an intermediate sex, is possibly at once the most interesting and disappointing part of this book. Here the doctor seems to be a little afraid of his topic, and rather abruptly relegates the musings of Mr. Leland, Mr. Ulrich, and Mr. Carpenter to the realm of pathology of the abnormal and the morbid. The book ends with a mild epigram: "The more man learns, the less need he feels to criticize and advise the government of the universe." It is a book understandable by the layman, whiel making appeals to minds trained scientifically; a book packed with valuable thought; a book that elevates the mind and widens its horizon. Emphatically, a first-rate book, beautifully printed and simply, but well, bound.
