Abstract
THE death of Prof. Leonard Trelawny Hobhouse on June 21, at the age of sixty-four years, at Alençon, Normandy, is a heavy loss to science and philosophy. Martin White professor of sociology in the University of London since 1907, he has done more than anyone else in England towards the development of sociology as a scientific discipline; he has made contributions of the highest value to comparative psychology and anthropology; and his work on logic and metaphysics must entitle him to rank among the most distinguished systematic philosophers of recent times.
