The book was written in the heat of controversies to which illusion
is made, the somewhat severe criticisms being justified by the then
facts and circumstances. If they now appear to be harsh, it is
because the policy then denounced has been abandoned, or so
modified as to be no longer open to the condemnation then
pronounced. Because we believe this work is culturally important,
we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting,
preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable,
high quality, modern editions that are true to the original work.
Public approval of a book is indicated by its sale. A second
edition of this having been exhausted, my publishers deem it
advisable to issue a third edition revised to date. In assenting, I
have had to examine it thoroughly in order to see whether the work
required correction, and, if so, to what extent. After careful
perusal I find no reason to modify any sentence, withdraw any
expression, or correct any statement of fact in its pages. Much has
happened since it was written in 1890, the proofs finally revised
in January 1891, but in all respects my views are unchanged 3 nor
have the last ten years Shown cause for any abandon ment of the
opinions then held. My conclusions have proved sound in all
instances, even where I ventured to predict. I have therefore left
the text untouched except for a few verbal emendations, and the
restoration of two pages (soa and 595) which were unaccountably
dropped out in going through the press. All that I desire to add
has been compressed into a Supplementary Chapter, in which the
several controversial points are dealt with, and statistics are
brought up to date. The book was written in the heat of
controversies to which illusion is made, the somewhat severe
criticisms being justified by the then facts and circumstances. If
they now appear to be harsh, it is because the policy then
denounced has been abandoned, or so modified as to be no longer
open to the condemnation then pronounced.
