The Day Book Of John Stuart Blackie Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Day-Book of John Stuart Blackie With regard to the general method pursued in making the selection, it is only necessary to add that this has been influenced by the consideration of how far the several reflections are applicable to that continuity of thought which may be found in the evolution that underlies all social and moral development, and also by the more material consideration of length. Many of the reflections had been elaborated into lengthy disquisitions, and some of the more important of these are omitted with more than ordinary regret. Finally, the fact must be emphasised that the words 'transcribed from the manuscript' have been used advisedly in so far as no attempt has been made to edit the various reflections in the way of modifying their original construction.
