Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on the Science of Human Life, Vol. 1 of 2 I have endeavored, as far as I could in such awork as this, to follow the plan of Euclid's Elements of Geometryz - that is, by referring con tinuall y to previously ascertained principles, or established facts and con elusions, whenever they are involved or illustrated or alluded to in any process of reasoning, I have made one part explain and corroborate anoth er, and by this means, I have put it in the power of every individual of suitable age and ordinary intelligence, by a proper degree of application, to attain to a very clear and full understanding of my work, not only in its particular, practical bearings, but in its general system of principles as a science - I hardly need remark however, that a work of this kind, cannot be read as an amusing novel, nor as an entertaining narrative or history; but it must be studied, attentively, and perhaps at first, with considerable labor, or few will be the wiser or the better for the time they devote to it. It is not possible that such a work as this, which has required the intense mental labor of many years to produce it, can be fully comprehended, from a single hasty perusal, even by a well disci i plined, and much improved mind; and still less, by minds destitute of Scientific education and habits of close and connected thinking.
