Book Description
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Herbert Spencer, Vol. 2 of 2 The Ethics were laid under contribution for what he calls a remarkable tribute of appreciation - a calen dar of quotations from his works for every day in the year, compiled by Miss Julia R. Gingell, and afterwards published as a volume of Aphorisms. The unauthorised publication of biographical details by those who came in contact with him in home life or in business was naturally looked upon as a breach of confidence. This will explain the earlier portions Of the following letter to a former secretary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Herbert Spencer, Vol. 2 of 2 The several parts of the Principles of Ethics were not written with that adherence to the order laid down in the original programme which had characterised the earlier volumes of the series. "The Data" had been given to the world in 1879, under the fear that his health might give way completely before he could reach it in ordinary course. Ten years after he again turned aside from the Sociology to write "Justice." Many things had happened during the decade showing how crude and distorted were the ideas entertained on this subject. Moreover, coinciding as it did to a large extent with the more systematic part of Social Statics, respecting parts of which his opinion had changed, the publication of "Justice" was desirable, both in vindication of his consistency, and as a corrective to the conclusions which, rightly or (as he thought) wrongly, were being drawn from the earlier work.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Home Life With Herbert Spencer This little book has its origin in the deep sense of the duty we feel we owe to Mr. Herbert Spencer. Many anecdotes were recounted at his death about his characteristics, but we have looked in vain for any which reveal the brighter and kindlier side of his nature. The great men who knew him talked of his philosophy, the little men of his quaint peculiarities. Even his Autobiography, completed just a few weeks before we knew him, though it shows the working of his mind, fails - and perhaps it is not to be wondered at - to convey any idea of the working of his heart.
