Excerpt from De Quibus Discourses and Essays It must not, however, be supposed that this is alto gether a polemical work, and that the relations between science and ecclesiasticism are its controlling theme. It is far from possessing this character. There is in it very much else which appertains to secular matters, wherein readers who are indifferent to disputation, or who are hostile to the side I have espoused, will, I trust, find enough that is consonant with their own feelings and sentiments to repay them for the perusal. In preparing these papers for publication I have realized that here and there the language, the arrange ment, or the manner of treatment, would be the better for a revision. But generally, this could not have been done satisfactorily without remodeling to an extent which I thought to be inadvisable. A few omissions and changes have been made, but these are slight and unimportant, so that the papers are essentially in their original form. For any palpable faults which may be found I bespeak the kind indulgence of the finder. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
