Excerpt from Well-Spent Lives: A Series of Modern Biographies
IN submitting this volume to the public, a word of explanation may appropriately be offered concerning the choice which has been made.
The principle by which the Author has been guided has been chiefly a desire to map out - not with any great precision, but in a rough and general way - the different provinces in which the human mind has exerted itself in recent years, and to take from each an illustrious example of patient and successful toil. In every case a fairly representative man has been chosen, and one sufficiently modern to show something of the progress which has been made in the particular department of knowledge over which he has presided.
