J. Rapson got the subject into a shape which one could understand and which offered a basis for future progress. If, as I venture to hope, I have been able to take the matter further than they left it, it must largely be because I have had the privilege, in Bentley’s phrase, of standing on their shoulders. - [Previous: c6.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c6.1) - [Next: c6.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c6.4) - [Up: c6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c6) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c6.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c6.2) · Pramāṇa
