Summary "When Professor J. Lewis Diman was invited to give a Course of Lectures at the Lowell Institute, in the spring of 1880, on the foundations of Natural Religion, he needed no other qualification than a careful review of the recent literature on the subject. This preparation was conscientiously made. In particular, the most prominent writers, as Mill, Spencer, Huxley, Darwin, Tyndall, who have dealt directly or indirectly with these topics from points of view more or less at variance with prevalent opinion, he examined afresh. At the same time he did not pass by the ablest of the later writers in defense of Theism. I perceive that he had profited especially by the perusal of Janet's thorough treatise on " Final Causes," and Professor Flint's excellent volumes on "Theism" and "Anti-Theistic Theories." The result of his reflections and researches appears on the pages which follow"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)
