The text features a lecture by British philosopher Charles Dunbar Broad, originally delivered in 1934. It explores philosophical themes and ideas, reflecting Broad's insights and perspectives on various topics. The work serves as a significant contribution to philosophical discourse, showcasing Broad's intellectual legacy and his influence on contemporary thought.

Focusing on the collection of key writings, this volume brings together C. D. Broad's influential essays on induction and probability, which have previously been less recognized. Initiated by the suggestion of Professor Donald Davidson and supported by Professor G. H. von Wright, the compilation aims to benefit future students by consolidating Broad's significant contributions. It includes a new Addendum from Broad and corrections to earlier misprints, along with a bibliography of his works up to 1959, enhancing the understanding of his philosophical insights.

This volume features C. D. Broad's Cambridge lectures on Ethics, delivered from 1933 to 1953, with the 1952-53 version being the focus. The manuscript, though revised, presents challenges due to Broad's handwriting. Notably, revisions on "Moore's theory" enhance clarity, while updates on "Naturalistic theories" are less cohesive.
