Excerpt from An Examination of the Structural Principles of Mr. Herbert Spencer's Philosophy The endeavour has been made to strip the argu ment, as far as possible, of all technical terms, -to remember that the highest merit of style is sim plicity, - and to write the whole work in such a fashion that to understand it in every part, and decide as to the validity of the reasoning, Shall demand of no one nothing more than enlarged common sense. If a few philosophical terms have been necessarily employed they will, I think, be found to be hardly more than elementary con ceptions, and such as can be mastered without much difficulty by any one of good intelligence.
