Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Recent Advances in Theistic Philosophy of Religion
Without entering into all the reasons which have weighed with me in this attempt, I would point out that the endeavour is one of paramount im portance and urgency, so long as theistic writers of undoubted ability are to be found who certainly succeed in creating an impression so unfavourable to the Progressiveness of Theism as to be precisely the opposite of that which it is my desire to deepen and produce by trying to establish and exhibit the progressive character of recent Theistic Philosophy. For, progressive in a most real sense I maintain it is, as I hope in succeeding pages to make evident in a way different from what has before been done, when we shall have viewed the new vast increase of knowledge with its wealth of scientific result for theistic thought, and surveyed the new views of the methods of development of the physical universe in their bearings upon the intellectual.
