Much more than a social worker, more than a political activist, Jane Addams was a giant in the civic life of America. She was the founder of the founder of Chicago's Hull House. Through her efforts of delivering social services, she recognized both the incredible potential of our democracy and the challenges of living up to it. *Democracy and Social Ethics* , published in 1902, articulates the quandary that American democracy is forever trying to solve: how to deliver the promise to every American.
