O'dell Smith, Chairrnang Bible and Philosophy AB., Emory 8: Henry College M. Diu., Union Theological Seminary The social sciences are those areas of knowledge dealing with man and society in the development of civilization. They are disciplines which are concerned with the rela- tionships of human beings with each other and with their natural environment. The social sciences present the story of human affairs from the past to present times. The social sciences have a definite relationship for the individual to the development, structure, and functioning of society. The subject matter of the social sciences can be analyzed and used in understanding trends, solving problems, and revealing the past as a means toward better understanding of the present. An understanding of the social sciences 38 Faculty DIVISION OF SOCIAL SCIENCES AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION gives one a broader knowledge and a more complete pic- ture of the development of civilization.
