decessor in Nippur. humanity has
been filled with amazement at its own
nature and has been vainly seeking
an explanation, a process which In all
likelihood must 90 on to the end OF
the human chapter.
So far as We know at present the
surest way into the study OF human
nature Is through the methods of psy-
chology. science yet in its youth.
Ethics is the selective agreement upon
certain exhibitions of human nature
as making for that which at any given
stage seems the good, and upon GER
tain other exhibitions as making for
the evil. But every exhibition Of hui
man nature. disregardlng the hugely
elliptlcal postulate of the existence Of
a state which may properly be called
human nature. must be made through
the exercise OF the mental powers Of
mankind in the sublimated region OF
intellectually which for convenience
We call the soul. Enjoyable as are
these studies, there Is very little evil
dence that the author has acquainted
himself with the recent work Of the
great masters Of the modern psy-
ment. Familiarity with the studies OF
Scripture on the observational side,
with the profound determinations OF
Wundt upon the psychological theory
Of ethics, would have shown him the
simple solution of many OF the prob
lens upon which he has bestowed
arduous analysis to conclusions not
wholly acceptable. In like manner his
factor of science is clearly derived
from compendia rather than from
original sources. He has not himself
worked over the problems; he rests
conveniently upon Interpretation and
general summation presented by
others. II is not difficult to select in
stances in which this at least double
course Of Interpretation has led to
conclusions not wholly sound. yet in
the body Of readers to whom this book
will come as a stimulating manual Of
advanced ethical thought the slips are
practically negligible
with an excellent sense of balance.
in effect an instinct Of proportion and
harmony he offers an introduction TO
system of ethics whose explanation
is enriched by the advance in precise
knowledge of life. In the first part,
the more reconcile and theoretical
division Of the work. he considers the
attributes Of life with particular en-
phasis upon sensation and reaction.
instinct, memory with habit and imi-
tation. consciousness and volition.
The second part, dealing with life's
constraining influences, takes up the
themes Of race. environment, culture.
In the third part, in which he deals
with human achievements, he consid-
ers man in society and sums his con-
illusions of social progress in eco
mics and politics.
In the second and third divisions OF
the work he Is In a position TO present
the result of actual work. For years
he has been engaged in the adjust
ment Of a majority people of inferior
culture attainment TO the moral and
economic system of a dominant NIL
nority. Such task sets man to hon.
est thought: 1t tends 10 shake out Of
morals the conviction that whatever
is is right 1t must wipe out the fixed
idea. II is here that We find the wide
