Whately, the Archbishop of Dublin, suggests that rhetoric is less concerned with investigation and discovery than with management. He writes, The orator approaches the process of rhetorical invention not as an investigator but as a communicator who is already armed with a general proposition he will advance and with a knowledge of the substantive resources, factual and inferred, by which that proposition may be established.

While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints.
