Excerpt from A Study of Ethical Principles
My other obligations I have tried to acknowledge in the course of the book, but it is difficult to make such acknowledgments complete. I have to thank my former colleague, Professor Walter G. Everett, of Brown Uni versity, for many helpful suggestions made while the work was in manuscript, and my brother, Professor Andrew Seth, of the University of Edinburgh, for his aid and advice while the original edition was passing through the press.
