About This Item
London: George Allen and Unwin, 1955. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. 8vo. Muirhead Library of Philosophy. Full maroon cloth. 405 pp. Slight sunning to spine. Dust jacket is price clipped, chipped at spine ends, sunned to spine and panels to covers, bumping to extremities. Professor Paton's Gifford Lectures, delivered in St. Andrews in 1950 and 1951 are not directed primarily to professional philosophers; they are intended for all thoughtful men who are affected by modern discontents. The central problem is to see how far it may be possible to combine the divergent points of view of religion and science, and if the problem is not "solved," its examination will at least help both the devout and the irreligious to understand their opponents' case and to assess the modern situation in which each man has to form his own philosophy of life.
