Excerpt from Recent British Philosophy: A Review, With Criticisms; Including Some Comments on Mr. Mill's Answer to Sir William Hamilton The substance of the greater portion of the following pages was delivered, in the form of Lectures, at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, in Albemarle Street, on the afternoons of March 21, 23, and 28, in the present year. London: June, 1865. Note To Second Edition. Although, since the first publication of the Volume, some of the views put forth in it have taken considerable extension in the writers mind, and there is one general speculation, growing out of the whole, which has begun to seem so important to him that it will probably press for exposition at some time, yet, with respect to the original purpose of the Volume, it has not been found necessary, in this reprint, to make more than a few verbal changes. Edinburgh: March, 1867. Note To Third Edition. To bring this Edition into closer connexion with the present time, an Additional Chapter has been thought desirable. For suggestions towards the Bibliographical Conspectus in that chapter I am indebted to Professor Adamson, of the Owens College, Manchester. Edinburgh: May, 1877.
