Excerpt from The Working Faith of the Social Reformer and Other Essays
The essays and lectures in this volume have already appeared in print: "The Working Faith of the Social Reformer" and "The Moral Aspect of the Fiscal Question" in The Hibbert Journal; "The Child and Heredity" in a volume of The Crown Theological Library, entitled The Child and Religion; "Idealism and Politics" in The Contemporary Review; "Social and Individual Evolution" in The New World; and "Social Responsibilities" in a pamphlet published by James MacLehose & Sons. I wish to express my hearty gratitude to the Editors and Publishers of these periodicals for their kindness in allowing me to collect the papers together for republication.
Most of the essays were originally written in response to the incitement of some quite temporary circumstance; but they all turn around principles which, if they are valid, are of cardinal importance for our thinking and practice in social matters.
The changes I have made are both less numerous and less important than I could have wished. In particular I could have gladly eliminated some repetitions.
