This volume, first published in 1930, purports to be a scientific, ethnologic and medical survey of the ancient rite of circumcision. It describes the methods and rituals of various races. One chapter, on "Function of the Prepuce in Coitus," is concerned more with the psychologic than with the physical phases of the problem. The book is illustrated and has a bibliography. The price, considering the scope of the volume, seems to be beyond all reason.
