Excerpt from Narratives From Criminal Trials in Scotland, Vol. 2 of 2It is gratifying to curiosity, as it is important in experimental ethics to examine individual instances in sufficiently extensive groups, that we may see whether any such general view is founded on truth. With this object, the more prominent cases of poisoning which have occurred in Scotland are now brought in their main features rapidly before the reader, and it is believed that he will not find them give countenance to the view that the skill of the poisoner increases in the same ratio as that of the scientific benefactor of his species.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Life and Correspondence of David Hume, Vol. 1: From the Papers Bequeathed by His Nephew to the Royal Society of Edinburgh, and Other Original SourcesIN this work, an attempt has been made to connect together a series of original documents, by a narrative of events in the life of him to whom they relate; an account of his literary labours; and a picture of his character, according to the representations of it pro served by his contemporaries. The scantiness of the resources at the command of previous biographers, and the extent and variety of the new materials now presented to the w orld, render unnecessary any other apology for the present publication. How far these materials have been rightly used, readers and critics must judge; but I may be perhaps excused for offering a brief explanation of the spirit in which I desired to undertake the task; and the responsibility I felt attached to the duty, of ushering before the public, documents of so much importance to literature.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
