“Mr ‘Raymond’s’ biography of Mr Balfour is an entertaining book. He states the facts fairly, and his comments are lively and on the whole sympathetic. But the author is obviously conscious of difficulties.”

“He has not, in spite of the claim put forward in the title, produced what is commonly understood by a biography. The study is, in the first place, limited to a single aspect of Mr Balfour’s many-sided personality, and, in the second place, objective; but to say that is, by no means, to deny that it is worth reading. Within its limitations, it is brilliantly clever.”

RAYMOND, GEORGE LANSING.[[2]] Ethics and natural law. *$2 Putnam 171
20–11578
“Intuitionalism is restated and made to account for all our ethical judgments. Conscience is asserted to be the basis of obligation, and the whole ethical problem is treated on psychological basis, as a conflict of the desires of the mind and of the body. All the particular problems treated, among them courtship and marriage, social pleasures, commercial and business relations, government, are solved by the exhortation to keep the mind’s desires uppermost.”—Springf’d Republican
