Englishmen in their language. We of the German countries recognize
the intellectual achievements of America and are well aware
how much Americans can teach us.

I can only hope that the translation will justify itself by its
usefulness to the legal profession.
HANS GROSS.



TRANSLATOR'S NOTE.


THE present version of Gross's Kriminal Psychologie differs from the
original in the fact that many references not of general psychological
or criminological interest or not readily accessible to English readers
have been eliminated, and in some instances more accessible ones
have been inserted. Prof. Gross's erudition is so stupendous that
it reaches far out into texts where no ordinary reader would be
able or willing to follow him, and the book suffers no loss from the
excision. In other places it was necessary to omit or to condense
passages. Wherever this is done attention is called to it in the
notes. The chief omission is a portion of the section on dialects.
Otherwise the translation is practically literal. Additional bibliography
of psychological and criminological works likely to be generally
helpful has been appended.
