""The Conscience: Lectures On Casuistry Delivered In The University Of Cambridge"" is a book written by Frederick Denison Maurice, a prominent theologian and professor at the University of Cambridge. The book is a collection of lectures on the topic of casuistry, which is the study of ethical and moral decision-making in specific situations. Maurice explores the role of conscience in guiding individuals to make ethical decisions, and discusses various ethical dilemmas and how they can be resolved through careful consideration of moral principles. He also examines the relationship between individual conscience and the moral law, and the importance of understanding the context in which moral decisions are made.The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers interested in the study of ethics and moral philosophy. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of ethical decision-making and the role of conscience in guiding moral behavior.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

They will find their recompense in the knowledge they will acquire of Professor Ferrier steaching if it destroys their interest in mine. You will perceive that in other respects there is very little in common between these rough Lectures and the books, so conspicuous for rich and various culture, which you have edited. I have had no notion of producing-a Philosophy of Consciousness. My aim has been to associate the Conscience with the acts and thoughts of our ordinary existence. I have abstained, some will think even pedantically, from the use of philosophical terms :I have only touched on philosophical systems when I fancied they were interfering with the rights and duties of every wayfarer. If I can lead a few young men in what I must still call your University, to think more earnestly, to live more bravely, I trust that the many obvious deficiencies of my book will not hinder you from owning me as a fellow-worker. Believe me, My dear Lushington, Yeiy sincerely yours, F. D. MAURICE.
