The Subnormal Child at School
Abstract
Going back to the days of Aristotle, the founder of psychology, we find arguments given to prove the existence of inferiority and superiority among men. In those days the abilities of those possessing strength of character or force of leadership were recognized and trained. The masses received little or no education. Of course those who really wished to be educated were educated and became the leaders of the masses who seemed content to remain subservient or to follow. Then, as now, there existed a class who seemed to possess neither the ability to lead nor the ability to follow and to be as obstacles in the way of progress.
