The Creator, and What We May Know of the Method of Creation: The Fernley Lecture (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Synopsis
A thoughtful examination of how science and philosophy try to explain the origin of the universe.
The work argues that science, focused on phenomena and their laws, cannot fully account for mind, causation, or the deeper question of creation.
It surveys a line of thinkers and critics who challenge materialism, weighing mind against matter and asking whether a primal cause can ever be tested by experiment. The book invites readers to consider the limits of physical research and the enduring pull of metaphysical questions about existence and the Method of Creation.
- Defines the scope and limits of physical science when addressing origin and causation
- Contrast between mind and matter, and their implications for understanding reality
- Engages with ideas from thinkers like Spencer, Huxley, Descartes, Berkeley, and Tyndall
- Explores whether consciousness can emerge from matter and what that means for science
Ideal for readers curious about science, philosophy, and the big questions behind creation.
