History of Philosophy, From the Earliest Times to the Beginning of the Present Century, Vol. 1 of 2: Drawn Up From Brucker's Historia Critica Philosophiae (Classic Reprint) - pocketboek

British student, who, in his search after truth, should be de sirons of taking a general survey of the rise and progress of Opinions on the more important subjects of speculation, and by a fair comparison of difl'erent systems to draw legi timate conclusions for himself, would seek in vain for the necessary information in any English work. The only treatise, which might seem to promise him much assistance on this subject, is Stanley's History of Philosophy but, to say nothing of the uncouth and obscure style in which this work is written, he would find, upon examination, that the author's plan extended little further than to the history of the Grecian sects of philosophy; and that, in executing it, he has rather performed the oflice of an industrious com piler, than that of a judicious critic.
