=LECTURES ON THE EARLY GREEK PHILOSOPHY=,
AND OTHER PHILOSOPHIC REMAINS OF PROFESSOR FERRIER OF ST ANDREWS.
Edited by SIR ALEX. GRANT and PROFESSOR LUSHINGTON. 2 vols. post
8vo, 24s.
"These lectures, in so far as they treat of Greek philosophy down to
Plato, have been carefully elaborated, and are of much value--of higher
value, indeed, than any writings on the same subject in the English
language; and in point of clearness, depth, and resolute search after
truth, and tenacious hold of it when found, we doubt if they are
surpassed in any language.... For our part, we do not know any
philosophical writings so fascinating to a young student of philosophy
as these early pages."--_Scotsman._
