A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

It will be seen that, on many of the subjects dealt with in this work, I have propounded views which differ from those usually accepted. I have not done this from any love of novelty, nor from any desire to attract attention by bizarre or fanciful theories. Each, of the new views here presented has been the result of a careful study of the subject dealt with, and I have searched as anxiously for considerations opposed to any novel theory as for arguments in its favor. If others should be more successful than I have been in finding reasons for rejecting any of my views, I shall be ready to abandon them without regret.
