" I do not know of any work on Conscience in which the true theory of ethics is so 

 clearly and forcibly presented, together with the logical inferences from it in support of the 

 (Treat truths of religion. The review of the whimsical and shallow speculations of Matthew 

 Arnold ia especially able and satisfactory ." Professor Francis Bowen, Harvard Univer- 

 sity. 



'These Lectures arc crowded BO full of knowledge, of thought, of argument, illumined 

 with such passages of eloquence an J power, spiced so frequently with deep-cutting though 

 good-natured irony, that I could make no abstract from them without utterly mutilating 

 them." Rev. Dr. Thomas HiU, ex- President of Harvard University, in Christian Register. 



"Joseph Cook is a phenomenon to be accounted for. No other American orator has 

 done what he has done, or any thing like it ; and, prior to the experiment, no voice would 

 have been bold enough to predict its success." Hev. Professor A. P. Peaoody of Harvard 

 University. 



" Mr. Cook is a specialist. His work, as it now stands, represents fairly the very latest 

 and best researches." George M. Heard, 31. D., of Kew York. 



"By far the most satisfactory of recent discussions in this field, both in method and 

 execution." Professor Borden P. Bonnie of Boston University. 



" Mr. Cook is a great master of analysis. He shows singular justness of view in his 

 manner of treating the most difficult and perplexing themes. Princeton Review. 



"The Lectures are remarkably eloquent, vigorous, and powerful." R. Payne Smith, 

 Dean of Canterbury. 



" They are wonderful specimens of shrewd, clear, and vigorous thinking." Rev. Dr. 

 Angus, the College, RegrnCs Park, 



"These are very wonderful Lectures." Rev. C. H. Spurgeon. 



"Traversing a very wide field, cutting right across the territories of rival specialists, the 

 work on Biology contains not one important scientific misstatement, either of fact or 

 theory." Jiibliotheca Sacra. 



" Vigorous and suggestive. Interesting from the glimpses they give of the present phases 

 of speculation in what is emphatically the most thoughtful community m the United 

 States." London Spectator. 



" I admired the rhetorical power with which, before a large mixed audience, the speaker 

 knew how to handle the difficult topic of biology, and to cause the teaching of German 

 philosophers and theologians to be respected." Professor i>cl,oberlein, of GMingen Uni- 

 versity. 



" Ilis object is the foundation of a new and true metaphysics resting on a biological basis, 

 that is the proof of the truth of philosophical theism, and of the fundamental ideas of 

 Christianity. These intentions he carries out with a full, and occasionally with a too full, 

 application of his eminent oratorical talent, and with great sagacity and thorough 

 knowledge of the leading works in physiology for the last thirty years." Professor Ulrici, 

 University of Halle, Germany.
