Abstract
THIS collection of lectures and essays is already so well known that it is now necessary only to note the fact that a second edition has appeared. Two essays have been omitted as being rather mathematical than philosophical, namely, those on “Types of Compound Statement” and on “Instruments used in Measurement.” They have found a more fitting place in the volume of “Mathematical Papers” published in 1882. The admirable biographical Introduction by Mr. Pollock has been revised, and some additions and omissions have been made in the extracts there given.
Lectures and Essays.
By the late W. K. Clifford Edited by Leslie Stephen and Frederick Pollock. With an Introduction by F. Pollock. Second Edition. (London: Macmillan and Co., 1886.)
