FOOTNOTES: 

[1] It is not only in Germany, but also in England, that natural scientists forget this important fact.  The Presidential Address of Professor Schaefer at the British Association (September 1912) is an instance of attempting to explain life in terms of its history and of its lowest common denominator.  And huge assumptions have to be made in order to explain as little as this.
[2] A fuller treatment of this subject will be found in my forthcoming volume, Pathways to Religion.  It is incorrect to state with Professor Sorley (Recent Tendencies in Ethics, p. 30) that “her [Germany’s] philosophy betrays the dominance of material interests.”
[3] An important article on this book appeared in Mind during 1896, and, as far as I can trace, this seems to be the first serious attention which was given to Eucken’s writings in England.  A translation of the volume will appear shortly by Messrs Williams & Norgate.
