Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Kant and Spencer: A Study of the Fallacies of Agnosticism
We have a high respect for Mr. Spencer as a man and a thinker, but it is a great pity that with all his brilliant talents, with all his ambition and energy, he has been deficient in thoroughness and earnestness. As a philosopher.he is a dilettante. Dilettantism is a marked feature not only of his entire system but also of the way in which he has worked it out. Kant was too heavy reading for him and the labor of studying his works did not seem prom ising. Mr. Spencer. As a thinker. Follows the principle of Hedon ism; he shirks the toil of research and engages in such subjects only as can easily be woven into feuilletonistic essays.
