Social equality, a short study in a missing science. By: W. H. Mallock

William Hurrell Mallock (7 February 1849 – 2 April 1923) was an English novelist and economics writer.A nephew of the historian Froude, he was educated privately and then at Balliol College, Oxford. He won the Newdigate Prize in 1872 for his poem The Isthmus of Suez and took a second class in the final classical schools in 1874, securing his Bachelor of Arts degree from Oxford University. Mallock never entered a profession, though at one time he considered the diplomatic service.He attracted considerable attention by his satirical novel, largely a symposium like Plato's Republic, The New Republic (1877),conceived while he was a student at Oxford, in which he introduced characters easily recognized as such prominent individuals as Benjamin Jowett, Matthew Arnold, Violet Fane, Thomas Carlyle, and Thomas Henry Huxley. Although the book was not well received by critics at first,[8] it did cause instant scandal, particularly concerning the portrait of literary scholar Walter Pater

W. H. Mallock was the author of Religion as a Credible Doctrine, The Reconstruction of Belief, The Individualist, The Heart of Life, and A Human Document.
