Abstract
THIS is an unusual book, attractively written and well worth reading. It is a direct and general statement of belief such as one seldom gets from a modern philosopher. At this late day a new faith is necessarily suspect. Prof. Woodbridge would probably not claim that his was new, but he could well claim a sane and judicious outlook and a freshness of expression which throws new light on old truths.
