 COPTRIGHT, 191a BY O. P. PUTNAM'S SONS third Printing Ube Itnldfterlwcftec fl)re00» Hew fiocft TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE THIS celebrated essay was first pub- liahed in the Revue de Mctaphysique et de Morale, in January, 1903. It ap- peared then after Time and Free Will and Matter and Memory and before Creative Evolution; and while containing ideas set forth in the first two of these works, it announces some of those which were after- wards developed in the last. Though this book can in no sense be regarded as an epitome of the others, it yet forms the best introduction to them. M. Edouard Le Roy in his lately published book on M. Bergson's philosophy speaks of " this marvelously suggestive study which constitutes the best preface to the books themselves." It has, however, more importance than a simple introduction would have, for in it M. Bergson explains, at greater length and vin greater detail than in the other boobs, 291591 Preface exactly what he means to convey by the word intuition.
