Excerpt
I am grateful to the Richard Lectures Committee for inviting me to give these lectures at the University of Virginia in November, 1962; I would also like to express my thanks to the members of that University for making my stay in Charlottesville so pleasant.
The lectures are published exactly as they were delivered, but footnotes have been added to document the assertions in the text.
