The Home University Modern Library Knowledge Jl Comprehensive Series of New and Specially Written goo/çs EDITORS : PROF. GILBERT MURRAY, D.Litt., LL.D., F.B.A. HERBERT FISHER, M.A., F.B.A. PROF. J. ARTHUR THOMSON, M.A. Prof. WM. T. BREWSTER, M.A. The Home University Library Is without the slightest doubt the pioneer in supplying serious literature “it is a thing very favourable to the real success of The Home University Library that its volumes do not merely attempt to feed ignorance with knowledge. The authors noticeably realise that the simple willing appetite of sharp-set ignorance is not specially common nowadays ; what is far more common is a hunger which has been partially but injudiciously filled, with more or less serious results of indigestion. The food supplied is therefore frequently medicinal as well as nutritious; and this is certainly what the time requires.”— Manchester Guardian. “Each volume represents a three-hours’ traffic with the talking-power of a good brain, operating with the ease and interesting freedom of a specialist dealing with his own subject. ... A series which promises to perform a real social service.”—The Times. “We can think of no series now being issued which better deserves support.’—The Observer. ‘We think if they were given as prizes in place of the more costly rubbish that is wont to be dispensed on prize days, the pupils would find more pleasure and profit. If the publishers want a motto for the series they might well take : ' In/inite riches in a little room.' "—Irish Journal of Education. “The scheme was successful at the start because it met a want among earnest readers; but its wider and sustained success, surely, comes from the fact that it has to a large extent created and certainly refined the taste by which it is appreciated.”—Daily Chronicle. “ Here is the world’s learning in little, and none too poor to give it house-room ! ”—Daily Telegraph. ]/- net in cloth 256 Pages 2/6 net in leather
