Although produced in controversy, this book is not a controversial
work. The calming effects of the years that have passed since the
tumultuous days in Lubeck are enough to guarantee that these pages
will accurately trace the coming and going of opinions, the battle
for the truth and the recognition of error. In only a few passages,
especially in Part Six, will one be able to tell from the tone of
the book that it comes out of this struggle. For these I ask the
indulgence of my reader, since they contain explanations the extent
of which probably does not correspond either to the difficulty of
the questions treated or to their influence. But in such passages
the extent of treatment could not - as was otherwise the case - be
made to depend solely on a judgment as to the value and
significance of the investigations presented. There considerations
of defense, more than concern for symmetry, had to determine the
structure.
