...

"A book calculated to do much good. . . . Care and research are manifest on every page. .. A really great work."-The Bishop of

Gloucester and Bristol.

"I cannot sufficiently express my sense of its value, especially in our day and country. . . . It covers ground which no apologetic work hitherto published, as far as I know, at all attempts.”—H. P. Liddon, D.D., Canon of St. Paul's, etc., etc.

“He has spared no pains to collect from the best sources of information the most striking results of modern discoveries in physical science, and has applied them to the confirmation, not the confutation, of the great truths of religion.... Prefaced by an admirable table of contents, and completed by a copious index, which both whet the reader's appetite and assist his digestion. We have no hesitation in saying that he will gain both moral and intellectual strength from its perusal.”—Times.

OUR COMMON

FAITH.

"All will recognize the wide range of the author's knowledge, the many departments of nature which he lays under contribution for arguments, the accuracy with which he concentrates them on his point, and the constructive skill with which, from 'theme to theme,' he builds up his proof."-Saturday Review.

"It is a complete storehouse of new and most interesting suggestions, bearing on the relations of Science and Religion, and showing the most intimate acquaintance with the leading sceptical writers and the popular systems of sceptical philosophy-German as well as English. . . . The book itself will remain as one of the most valuable of all modern contributions to Evidential Theology, a monument of great industry, learning, and ability."--Churchman.

"It is almost impossible to over-estimate the value of this great and unrivalled work as the most logical and scientific antidote yet published to the deadly venom of the sceptical scientific publications of the day."Literary Churchman.
