Grosse, Ernst,
Author's Preface
The present work is a pioneer effort, and should be judged as such. Whoever ventures upon a new region where nobody has made earnest explorations can not expect to find numerous and inestimable facts ; but he must be satisfied if he only finds the way there. The value of this book lies less in the answers it gives than in the questions it raises. In any case, I hope that I may have done a service to my readers, especially to those who are not able to share my views, in having given my thoughts the briefest expression at my command.
Ernst Grosse.
Freiburg in Baden, October 9, 1893.
