Excerpt from The Threshold of Ethics IN the following chapters I have tried to consider, in the briefest fashion, and with the least possible use of technical language, some of the crucial introductory problems which have to be faced by anyone who proposes to read, think or teach about ethics in general or Christian ethics in particular.

I have to thank my friend, the Rev. J. S. Bezzant, Fellow of Exeter College and Chancellor-designate of Liverpool Cathedral, for his great kindness in reading the proofs.
