FROM THE TRANSLATORS' PREFACE

Eucken's influence as a thinker has for long been felt far beyond the borders of his native land. Translations of his books have appeared in many foreign languages, including French, Italian, Swedish, Finnish and Russian. In our own country such articles on Eucken's works as have appeared quite recently in the _Times_, the _Guardian_, and the _Inquirer_ are significantly sympathetic and appreciative. 'It seems likely,' writes the reviewer in the _Guardian_, 'that for the next decade Eucken will be the leading guide for the pilgrims of thought who walk on the Idealist Road.'

_PRESS OPINION_

"There are scores of passages throughout the volume one would like to quote--the thinking of a man of clearest vision and loftiest outlook on the fabric of life as men are fashioning it to-day. It is a volume for Churchmen and politicians of all shades and parties, for the student and for the man of business, for the workshop as well--a volume for every one who is seriously interested in the great business of life."--_Aberdeen Journal._
