Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating collection of quotations and notes, many from the 1870s and 1880s, offering a glimpse into the literature and social and religious turmoil of the time. The author has traveled the world and interacted with many thought leaders. The first English edition of the book was prepared in haste to help the Australian Repatriation Fund. This current edition is greatly expanded with additional quotations, a subject index, and an index of authors with their birth and death dates. The author includes many of his own comments on subjects such as materialism, science, Darwin, pessimism, eugenics, and spiritualism. The author's notes and comments can be seen as incidental but also an important part of the book, delving deeply into the science and religion debates of that era. Readers interested in the tumultuous 1870s and 1880s or the intersection of literature, religion, and science will find this book an invaluable resource.
