Excerpt: ... lose control of themselves are the people of the tropics. You do not hear of people running amuck among northern races; at least, if it happens, it is very rare, but in one form or another it is quite common among tropical races. All this is significant politically. This weakening of the will by the imperfect adjustment of the physiological processes means that when a man is defeated in a political contest he is in danger of letting his disappointment get the better of him.
