Modern Materialism

Modern Materialism: Its Attitude Towards Theology, A Critique And Defense is a book written by James Martineau in 1876. The book is a critical analysis of the philosophy of materialism and its impact on theology. Martineau argues that materialism, which posits that matter is the fundamental substance of the universe and that everything can be explained in terms of physical laws, is incompatible with traditional theological beliefs. He examines the various arguments put forth by materialists and seeks to refute them, while also defending the importance of theology in understanding the nature of the universe and our place in it. Martineau's writing is clear and concise, making the book accessible to a wide range of readers. Overall, Modern Materialism is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of philosophy, theology, and science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
