Excerpt from The Principles of Grammar: An Introduction to the Study of the Laws of Language, by the Inductive Method

Tms book is the outcome of an attempt to find a statement of grammar principles which should avoid the placing of the teacher of foreign languages at cross purposes with the teacher of English, to the end that one instructor may not labo riously unteach what the other has as laboriously taught. The authors, originally agreeing only upon the necessity of agree ment, have proceeded upon the conviction that in the essential sameness of thought processes among different peoples the broader principles of language structure must be general. They believe themselves to have found their problem not im possible of solution and the attempt not altogether profitless.
