Excerpt from Beliefs About Man
I had in mind last year one book, to be called God and Man. But the one book has become two. Belief in God was published in book form last spring. Now comes its companion, Beliefs about Man, asking that "the twain" - always one in intention - may be "joined together" in the hand and thought of the reader.
I need hardly add that these discourses claim only to be essays - attempts - at treating themes, each one of which is worthy of a volume by itself. Believing that the humble path of "the scientific method" is the only one that promises to lead anywhere, I have tried to avoid the highway of assumption, and to keep my feet upon the solid ground of verifiable knowledge.
It is perhaps proper for me to say that these sermons were all spoken in the ordinary course of my Sunday morning work, and are now published from stenographic reports.
