PREFACE
The aim of this little work is practical, and it is put forth in the
hope that it may be useful to the general reader and to the student of
philosophy as an introduction and guide to the study of Bergson's

study of its problems. Few modern thinkers will be found more
fascinating, more suggestive and stimulating than Bergson, and it is
hoped that perusal of the following pages will lead to a study of the
writings of the philosopher himself. This is a work whose primary aim is

has been worked out strictly with that end in view.
