Excerpt from Progressive Morality: An Essay in Ethics These pages represent an attempt to exhibit a scientific conception of morality in a popular form, and with a view to practical applications rather than the discussion of theoretical difficulties. For this purpose it has been necessary to study brevity and avoid controversy. Hence, I have made few references to other authors, and I have almost altogether dispensed with foot-notes. But, though I have attempted to state rather than to defend my views, I believe that they are, in the main, those which, making exception for a few back eddies in the stream of modem thought, are winning their way to general acceptance among the more instructed and reflective men of our day. It is necessary that I should state that this Essay is independent of a much larger work, entitled the 'Principles of Morals, ' on which I was, some years ago, engaged with my predecessor, the late Professor Wilson.
