Excerpt from Courses of Reading and Study in the New International Encyclopaedia
It is in its orderly marshalling of the material contained in the Encyclopaedia that we believe the value of this book consists. It is quite unlikely that the average reader, left to his own guidance, Will plan his course in such a manner as to produce the fullest results with the least waste of time. Where the subject is unfamiliar, he is as apt at the start to hit upon the middle of it as upon the beginning, and, in passing from article to article, there is always the danger of his missing the logical sequence of topics. A mere index would here be useless. What is necessary is a carefully planned outline that shall lead the reader, step by step, from elementary principles to the most specialized treatment. Such a guide this Outline aims to be. The preparation of this volume, carried on under the supervision of the Editors, has been in the direct charge of Mr. Simeon strunsky, of the staff of the New International Encyclopedia.
