To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But science deals with forces as well as matter ; and when those who make this reproach will indicate just how much re- mains when the actions of power upon matter are exhausted, they will, perhaps, widen their conceptions upon the sub- ject. Not only do the great lines of scientific thought con- verge to the supreme end of elucidating the regnant sub- jects of man and society, but its influence is powerfully felt even in the highest regions of philosophical speculation. * ■* Prof. Masson, in h...is lively little work, Recent British Philosophy, remarks : " In no age so conspicuously as in our owii has there been a crowding in of new scientific conceptions of all kinds to exercise a perturb- ing influence on Speculative Philosophy. They have come in almost too fast for Philosophy's powers of reception. She has visibly reeled amid their shocks, and has not yet recovered her equilibrium. Within those years alone which we have been engaged in surveying there have been de- velopments of native British science, not to speak of influxes of scientific ideas, hints, and probabilities from without, in the midst of which British Philosophy has looked about her, scared and bewildered, and has felt that some of her oldest statements about herself, and some of the most impor- tant terms in her vocabulary, require re-explication.
