Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Guilty: A Tribute to the Bottom Man and a Plain Reply to Not Guilty a Defence of the Bottom Dog, by Mr. R. Blatchford
We have acquired the knowledge of good and evil: we can choose the one and reject the other, and are thus burdened with a sense of responsibility for our acts. Doubtless we still obey the strongest motive, but there is something in ourselves which makes it to be a motive and r'egulates its strength - that is, makes it the strongest.'
