Excerpt from Central Government IN order to explain the scheme and general char acter of this volume, it is necessary to say a few words about the series of which it forms the com mencement. The English Citizen Series is intended to meet the demand for accessible information on the ordinary conditions and the current terms of our political life. In this, its first volume, it deals with the machinery whereby our Constitution works, and the broad lines upon which it has been con structed: in subsequent volumes it will treat of the course of legislation, of the electoral body, its functions, composition, and development, of the great scheme of national income, and its disburse ment, and of various other matters, but on the present, as on every other subject, the aim has been not to give mere compendia of technical infor mation, but to sum up as shortly and clearly as possible the leading points, and to arrange these so as to show their relation to one another, and their general bearing on the life and the duties of the citizen.
