About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from The Life of Andrew Martin Fairbairn The writing of this book has been a labour of love. When it was first suggested to me I shrank from the task as one altogether beyond my powers. But I was impelled to undertake it in the end, t only by the wishes of Dr. Fairbairn's family, but by a deep sense of loyalty to one who was to me, as to so many others, both a master and a friend. This, however, has only increased the difficulty of the work. It is never easy to write about those we have admired and loved. The desire to avoid partiality often leads to the other extreme, and I am conscious that my attempts at appreciation may sometimes seem to err on the side of caution. I have tried to present a true portrait, and I may say that, in the effort to do so, I have come to appreciate far more deeply than I did before, t only the great intellectual capacity of the man, but also the essential bility and simple beauty of his character and life. I have to thank the members of Dr. Fairbairn's family for giving me free access to all his papers. These consisted mainly of letters and tebooks. He kept diary save for a week or two here and there, and there are long gaps in the correspondence at some of the most interesting stages in his career.
