Reason and Belief is a philosophical book written by Sir Oliver Lodge. This book explores the relationship between reason and belief, and how they can coexist in the modern world. Sir Oliver Lodge, a renowned physicist and philosopher, delves into the nature of belief and the role it plays in our lives. He argues that reason and belief are not mutually exclusive, but rather they complement each other. Lodge also discusses the impact of science and technology on our beliefs, and how they have shaped our understanding of the world. This book is a thought-provoking read that challenges readers to reconsider their beliefs and the role of reason in their lives. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, science, and the intersection of the two.1910. My own researches have led me to perceive a profound substratum of truth underlying ancient doctrines, and in so far as the progress of science instead of undermining actually illustrates and illumines some of them, I conceive it to be my duty as well as my privilege to indicate to the best of my ability how matters stand. Part I of this book deals with the subject of incarnation and ultimately leads up to a brief consideration of the momentous Christian doctrine-The Incarnation. Part II furnishes hints and suggestions for the effective treating of the Old Testament in the light of the doctrine of evolution. Part III is of the nature of an apologia and anticipatory reply to critics.
