The author gives a short history and psychological interpretation of the Shaker Sect. It is interesting in that it again brings out the well-recognised fact that repressed sexuality is the motivating force of religious sects and movements. The author also seems to have some acquaintance with psycho-analysis as evidenced by some of his interpretations.
