This volume is planned for the beginner. It is designed to satisfy his initial curiosity and inespecial to excite that curiosity. It is written in a very lucid style, giving a rapid sketch of the history of philosophy from the time of Thales down to the last century, avoiding as far as possible technical language. The author brings out in a few sentences the keynote of the teaching of each school and the main lines of each great man's thought.
