Abstract
THE original papers included in this volume have already been noticed in the reports of society meetings. The present volume contains, in addition to the papers read at the ordinary meetings of the society, two of the symposia contributed to the Oxford Congress last September, in which the members of the French Philosophical Society took part. Of particular interest in this volume is Prof. J. A. Smith's sympathetic account of the philosophy of Giovanni Gentile, an Italian philosopher, the originality of whose speculation, already acknowledged in his own country, is beginning to be recognised universally. We may also mention as of special scientific interest Mr. A. F. Shand's article on “Impulse, Emotion, and Instinct,” and Dr. Beatrice Edgell's article on “Memory and Conation.” The volume is well up to the high level of the proceedings of previous years.
