Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essays on the Pursuit of Truth and on the Progress of Knowledge The volume in which the two following Essays first appeared, in the year 1829, was on the whole favourably received; so much so, at least, as to be out of print in two or three years. The Author has since been repeatedly urged, in various quarters, by strangers as well as friends, to publish another edition; a step which he has hitherto declined, partly on account of the tardy and limited encouragement extended to such works, but chiefly because he was dissatisfied with the principal Essay, as a less adequate view of the subject than he was capable of presenting, and he did not wish it to re-appear without such a complete revision as other studies prevented him for a season from bestowing upon it. Within the last year, however, he has had an opportunity of performing this task. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
