This book is included in the Family Affairs - Education section.
Editor's Preface It has been suggested that I should reproduce in more permanent form a series of articles which I wrote in John o' London's Weekly. Hence this book. The later chapters were written in order to give effect to a suggestion made by Lord Morley when speaking at Manchester about fifty years ago, that the best way to learn to reason would be to study the methods adopted in the Law Courts. In these chapters, therefore, I have attempted to describe in popular terms the laws of evidence and, in addition, briefly to outline the laws of thought. The Author March, 1922.
