Excerpt from Lectures on the Logic of Arithmetic
The motto chosen for the title-w of this little work may seem unsuitable as an Introfi duction to a course of lessons on Arithmetic; a subject which to many persons seems so emi uently un-heavenly and dull. But then, the main reason why it seems so is that their teachers failed to put them in possession of that Re covered Past,' the bearing of which on the Present forms the great clue to that knowledge of subtle forces which gives its possessor the key of the Future.
The present little volume is not intended to interfere with ordinary methods of teaching Arithmetic, or to supersede the books already in use. It can be used under any School system and in conjunction with any text-book. Not more than one chapter is intended for use in any one term; the earlier chapters are suited to little children, the later ones for children of fourteen or fifteen. The lesson for the term may be repeated each week with varying illus trations.

Excerpt from Lectures on the Logic of Arithmetic
My dear Friend,
But for your resolute energy I think I should never have communicated to the educational world the method which I have long used for reviving the faculties of children suffering from mathematical rickets and logical paralysis. These diseases are common; they are induced by the practice of teaching mathematical processes on a hypothesis about the nature of Mathematics directly opposed to that which underlies the original invention and formulation of these processes.
I have, as you know, taken no part in recent attempts to improve methods of teaching, because, as James Hinton said, I can see no use in trying to invent good methods for teaching truth on a basis of falsehood; the only remedy in which I have any faith is to tell the pupil one or two simple laws of the relation of the human mind to Scientific Truth, and then to see that he forms the habit of working in accordance with those laws.
