Abstract
DR. HOBSON'S important book falls into three main divisions: the first consists of four lectures and describes his general philosophical position, or rather, as he would prefer us to say, his view of the nature of science and its relation to philosophy; the second, being in fact the bulk of the book, comprises fourteen chapters, giving a survey of the development of scientific thought in all its main branches from mathematics to biology; the third, which is a sort of epilogue, brings the book within the terms of the Gifford Trust and deals with the limits of natural science and religion: this is the last two chapters. We will say a few words about each in turn. The Domain of Natural Science: the Gifford Lectures delivered in the University of Aberdeen in 1921 and 1922. By Prof. E. W. Hobson. Pp. xvi + 510. (Cambridge: At the University Press, 1923.) 21s. net.
