In either case it is a symptom both of health and of hope in the future.\u2026 Each volume represents a three-hours' traffic with the talking-power of a good brain, operating with the ease and interesting freedom of a specialist dealing with his own subject \u2026 A series which promises to perform a real social service.\"\u2014The Times.\n\"With the growth of popular education of all grades, it was natural to believe that there are a very large number of men and women of all ages to whom such a series as this would be a priceless boon and comfort.\u2026 The immediate discovery of a large, highly intelligent public, with ideas and criticisms of its own, is an invaluable reward to the public spirit that has inspired this undertaking, and a sign of great encouragement to all who are interested in the liberal education of the State.\"\u2014The Nation.\n\n\"We can think of no series now being issued which better deserves support.\"\u2014The Observer.\n\n\"Certainly no publishing enterprise of our time is more remarkable or better deserving of success.\"\u2014Manchester Guardian.\n\n\"These dainty, vivid little books lend a new attraction to the acquisition of useful knowledge.
