Excerpt from A Comtist Lover: And Other Studies A Word or two of explanation seems called for with regard to some of these miscellanies. I have, in the first place, to apologize for a certain repetition of thought, and here and there, of language, in the case of the Third Part of the dialogue on Positivism and the essay called "Immortality-Thoughts." I had not originally intended to include the latter in this volume, but, on reflection, I decided to reprint it here, on account of the - in my view - paramount importance of the topic with which it deals. I have found nothing more surprising among the many occasions for surprise afforded by the vagaries of modern thought than the manner in which this supreme question, Are we, or are we not, immortal? Is there, or is there not, a Hereafter? is quietly shelved by thinkers of all creeds and schools. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
