Excerpt from The Adversaries of the Sceptic: Or the Specious Present, a New Inquiry Into Human Knowledge
This book aims at controverting certain current, or rather dominant, theories in regard to relations, judgment, reasoning, perception, and the unit of Ethics, and to substitute others in their stead. Much of it is destructive, but in no case has destruction been attempted except as a necessary preliminary to reconstruction. It is in some measure to be regretted that the men, whose doctrines the following pages directly oppose, are those to whom in matters philosophical I owe the greatest debt. If any word in the book can be found to imply a personal or professional disrespect, I beg beforehand to withdraw it and to substitute a word entirely colourless. To Professor Royce, in particular, I am indebted for the best formal instruction in Metaphysics that I have received; his seminary on Kant, at Harvard in the year 1891-2, has remained in the memory of the men who attended it as a model of what a seminary should be. To Mr. Bradley"s books I am more deeply indebted than to those of any living author in Great Britain.
