NOTE

It is impossible for me to publish this bookwithout some expression of the debt it owes to Leslie Stephen'sHistory of the English Thought in the Eighteenth Century. Itis almost insolent to praise such work; but I may be permitted tosay that no one can fully appreciate either its wisdom or itsknowledge who has not had to dig among the original texts.

Were so small a volume worthy to bear adedication, I should associate it with the name of my friend WalterLippmann. He and I have so often discussed the substance of itsproblems that I am certain a good deal of what I feel to be my ownis, where it has merit, really his. This volume is thus in greatpart a tribute to him; though there is little that can repay suchfriendship as he gives.
