1891. The Catholic Review offers the following recommendation: Those who are acquainted with Father Coppens' textbooks of Rhetoric and Oratorical Composition, will be prepared to find in this new work of his a model of order and thoroughness, combined with an attractive style, and they will not be disappointed. The treatment of logic in its dialectic side is the best brief statement for school use that we have yet seen in English. the critical side of the logic is compendious, but by no means dry. The latter two-thirds of the work is devoted to mental philosophy. The views of the Stonyhurst Manuals are reflected in this book, only that the American Jesuit has systematized the matter in a way to make all teachers grateful to him.

Human reason and Divine Revelation are two means by which truth is manifested to man; they cannot contradict one another; as a matter of fact, that which is evident to reason is never found in conflict with Revelation. -from the Introduction Intended as a textbook for Catholic schools and seminaries, this compact guide to modern philosophy explored from a Catholic perspective covers: .Syllogisms .Method in reasoning .Truth and falsity .Means of attaining certainty .Common sense .The nature of being .The origin of the world .The nature of the human soul .The physical and metaphysical essence of God This little book became one of the foundations of modern Catholic philosophy when it was first published in 1891, and it continues to hold dramatic sway over contemporary Christians, its pronouncements on morality fueling the arguments of religious activists in the moral debates dividing our society today. American Jesuit scholar CHARLES COPPENS is also the author of A Brief Text-book of Moral Philosophy (1896) and Moral Principles and Medical Practice (1897).
