About This Book

The author’s reluctance to have this book published is all the more reason for the publishers’ desire to have it see the light of day. The author felt that the book would be regarded as presumptuous criticism. It is natural that he would feel that way, for he is one of those rare men who see more error in themselves than they see around them.
