LIBERTY AND AUTHORITY. 



By Lord HUGH CECIL, M.P. 



Crown 8vo., buckram. 2S. 6d. 



This pithy volume contains an address delivered by the author 

 on the occasion of his inauguration as President of the Associated 

 Societies of the University of Edinburgh. He does not trench 

 upon the difficult ground of metaphysics, but takes as his subject 

 for discussion Political Liberty and its Limitations and Objects. 

 In the course of the address the interesting thesis is evolved that 

 Liberty consists in the power of doing, not what others approve 

 of, but what they disapprove of, and that if an individual has not 

 the right to do what others deprecate, he is not free at all. This 

 thesis is tested by application to several of the political problems 

 of our own day. 



LONDON : EDWARD ARNOLD, 41 & 43 MADDOX STREET, W.
