The subject-matter is of permanent value, culled from the folk-lore of the primitive races; the vocabulary, based upon that of the Hiawatha Primer, is increased gradually, and the new words and phrases will add to the child's power of expression. The naïve explanations of the phenomena of nature given by the primitive races appeal to the child's wonder about the same phenomena, and he is pleased and interested. These myths will gratify the child's desire for complete stories, and their intrinsic merit makes them valuable for oral reproduction. [more]

Jesse Omoregie The nature & nurture of deviant behaviour

Revised Edition

This edition examined how in the long past the biology of an individual was applied in explaining deviant or criminal behaviour, and how theories were formulated based on the biological make-up of the individual. Over the years there has been a shift from biology focused theories in explaining criminality to genetic, social, and psychological accounts. This literature is an expansion of the original version and further explored the effect that marginalization has on the individual or group(s) that propel them to engage in behaviours that are tagged deviant by society. It also explores the implications of different theoretical explanation to criminality. [more]
