NOTICES OF THE FIRST EDITION.
"The author has been a careful reader of the science and literature of the day, and has formed generally intelligent opinions upon the great questions of modern thought. He is also scholarly in his use of language."—Chicago Tribune.
"Mr. Rice's ideas upon matters which he treats appear to us sound and practical; and the modesty with which they are put in his volume will not detract from their value in the minds of sensible persons."—Boston Times.
"The style is pure, and the thought, if not new, is fresh, and at times presented to the reader in a fine poetic setting. Nature is spoken of as by one who really loves her, and who has seen her face to face, and not through the eyes of another."—Christian Leader.
"The collection of miscellaneous essays embraced in this volume without any apparent bond of connection are worthy the attention of intelligent readers, from the thoughtfulness of their tone, the sobriety of their judgments, and the naturalness of their style."—New York Tribune.
