Essays and Addresses

By Professor GILBERT MURRAY, LL.D., D.Litt.

Demy 8vo. 10s. 6d. net.

The first of these papers is Religio Grammatici (the Religion of a Man of Letters), and the phrase might almost serve as a title for the whole book. It deals with many current questions of philosophy and literature, such as Stoicism, Inspiration, the Soul, the Theory of Poetry, Empire and Rebellion, from the point of view of one whose chief teachers on these subjects have been the ancient Greeks with whom such studies began.

Modern Men and Mummers

By HESKETH PEARSON

Demy 8vo. 10s. 6d. net.

This is a book that will be talked about. Mr. Pearson has the knack of revealing the essential characteristics of the famous men he has known. The book contains studies of, among others, Bernard Shaw, Frank Harris, Sir Francis Galton, Sir Herbert Tree, Sir George Alexander, Robert Ross, and Lytton Strachey. Besides these, the author has rubbed shoulders with many popular idols, whom he has managed to catch off their pedestals, including: Lloyd George, Dean Inge, G. K. Chesterton, Horatio Bottomley, Hall Caine, H. G. Wells, Mrs. Patrick Campbell, Arthur Bourchier, Edmund Gosse, Joseph Conrad, Mrs. Asquith, Winston Churchill.

Demy 8vo. 16s. net.

Pure Thought and the Riddle of the Universe

By FRANCIS SEDLÁK

Demy 8vo. 18s. net.

“What Mr. Sedlák is aiming at in this large and ably reasoned treatise is an original elaboration of the whole subject matter of Hegel’s Science of Logic.... Its remarkably well sustained continuity of abstract reflection offers a salutary and encouraging discipline to students who will consider its problem from its severely detached point of view.”—Scotsman.

The Mneme

By Professor RICHARD SEMON

Translated by LOUIS SIMON

Demy 8vo. 18s. net.

Elements of Social Justice

By L. T. HOBHOUSE, D.Litt., LL.D.

Demy 8vo. 10s. 6d. net.

The object of this book is to show that social and political institutions are not ends in themselves. The social ideal is to be sought not in the faultless unchanging system of an institutional Utopia, but in the love of a spiritual life with its unfailing spring of harmonious growth unconfined.

By L. T. HOBHOUSE, D.Litt., LL.D.

Martin White Professor of Sociology in the University of London

Demy 8vo. 8s. 6d. net.

By GUIDO DE RUGGIERO

Demy 8vo. 16s. net.

By Professor CHARLES BAUDOUIN

Translated by EDEN and CEDAR PAUL

“Undoubtedly one of the most significant psychological works of recent years.”—New Age.

“The most exciting book published since ‘The Origin of Species.’”—Nation.

The New Psychology: and its Relation to Life

By A. G. TANSLEY

Fourth Impression

Demy 8vo. 10s. 6d. net.

“It is difficult to do anything but advise all who take even a slight interest in the mind of man, in politics, sociology, education, religion, or art, to buy the book and read every word of it ... between this book and all previous expositions of the Freudian doctrine there is a world of difference ... the book is inspired by a stoic and noble optimism.”—Nation.

“For concentrated and penetrative sagacity he has, in his own school of thinkers, no rival ... all his work is infinitely suggestive. He talks with information and with acumen. He sweeps broadly, he probes deep, and he is never for a moment dull.”—Manchester Guardian.

“A book rich in thought and most catholic in its receptivity.”—Observer.

By J. A. HOBSON

Cr. 8vo. 7s. 6d. net.

“A characteristic work by one of the most alert and freshly vigorous minds now writing upon public affairs.”—Nation.

In Days to Come

By WALTHER RATHENAU

Translated from the German by EDEN and CEDAR PAUL

Demy 8vo. 12s. 6d. net.
