Butler's " Analogy " and Modern Thought. By Alexander Richard

Eagar, D.D. (Society for Promoting Christian Know- ledge.)—Dr. Eagar annotates, explains, and supplements the arguments of the Analogy. All three processes that great work clearly needs. It is not a book that can be read without assistance ; it is decidedly obscure in expression and involved in argument ; in some respects, the position of the controversy has changed since Butler's time. To these needs the author of this volume, which has received the imprimatur of one of the great Church societies, has addressed himself.
