From the Preface: "The word liberty which I have with some reluctance chosen to stand as the title of this book, means so many things that it often means al…most nothing. I have attempted no abstract discussion or definition but have endeavored to show what those who have most thoughtfully considered the subject throughout the ages have meant by Liberty. I have also discussed the subject in the light of the general philosophy of life and of the psychological and historical facts which form the background of such discussion.".

From the article: "Some few of these philosophers - as Robert Hooke and Steno in the seventeenth century and Moro, Leibnitz, Buffon, Whitehurst, Werner, Hutto…n, and others in the eighteenth - had vaguely conceived the importance of fossils as records of the earth's ancient history but the wisest of them no more suspected the full import of the story written in the rocks than the average stroller in a modern museum suspects the meaning of the hieroglyphs inscribed on the case of a mummy. It was necessary that a man should appear who could see without prejudice and apply sound common-sense to what he saw. Such a man was William Smith, the English surveyor. He led the way to a science which was destined, in its later developments, to shake the structure of established thought to its foundations.".
