Summary:

The late Professor Bury's History of Freedom of Thought is a
well-established "little classic" which has been in steady and
continuous demand since it was first published in 1913. Written when
liberty of thought seemed likely to become a universally attained
ideal, the book is at once a history and a manifesto of a vital human
quest whose end has since receded into futurity. For this edition Mr.
Blackburn has provided a substantial Epilogue surverying, in a
historical context, the changed istuation in religion, education,
Parliament, the press, science, and in society generally.
