To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


But, on the whole, the account seems to be cor- rectly given ; and it is one which will do good.
In the remaining portion of the second volume Mr. Buckle gives a very vigorous description of the intellectual progress* of the Scotch during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. His ac- count of Adam Smith as a writer is peculiarly brilliant. His views of Hume and Reid are ably drawn. Thence he proceeds to discuss the dis- coveries of Black and Leslie in natural philosophy, of Smith and Hutton
... in geology, of Cavendish in chemistry, of Cullen and Hunter in physiology and pathology. These discussions are interesting, and show a great range of knowledge and power of study in the writer. Yet they are episodes, and have little bearing on the main course of his thought.
234 BUCKLE AND HIS THEORY OF AVERAGES We have thus given a cursory survey of these volumes. We do not think Buckle's philosophy sound, his method good, or his doctrines tenable.
Yet we cannot but sympathize with one who has devoted his strength and youth with such untiring industry to such a great enterprise.
