Preface
This book was designed for use by people who are
interested in the philosophy of history. The main purpose has been to
show why an author, or authors, faced with a certain set of problems
at a given time in history, have attempted to solve the pattern of the
human past. The introductions are more extensive than usual in order
to place the selections in their proper perspective.I would like to thank the following publishers for permission to
