Take time to read and read again for the effect.

They want to make very sure you do not read Hegel out of context. We have an exceptionally long introduction that predefines what philosophy is and the related sciences. Finally, we have an overview of Hegel's system by comparing it to Mr. Herbert Spencer. We also get coverage of other thinkers such as Johann Friedrich Herbart, Kant, Schopenhauer, Leibniz, Fichte, Goethe, Aristotle, Boëthius, etc. They even toss in quotes in Latin form, Terentius. This work is very wordy, as is most work of the time; so, get used to wordy sentences that could be expressed today with less flamboyance. There is also some overlap of the same thoughts in different sections; it may be seen as a redundancy, but it is necessary to make a new point of insight. If you think this is an all-the-way-out theory, keep reading, as Hegel shows how it applies to everyday life, as in politics. Speaking of politics, there is a lot of information on the nature of the rational mind. You will come away with the feeling that you have more than your money's worth.
