Scientific Endeavour and Inferiority Complex

Abstract

The is a pleasure to greet this work in an English dress. The Spanish original appeared in Madrid in 1923. A personal document, at once historical and self-revealing, it went through three editions before its author's death in 1934. For it to be accessible to a larger audience has been a desideratum for some years.
