Dean Inge has published his Hulsean Lectures at Cambridge for

1925-1926. The Platonic Tradition in English Religious Thought (Longmans, 46.) is a plea for the philosophy of mysticism. " The need of the age is to restore the idea of what Professor Peabody calls the Church of the Spirit. It is not the Church of the Spirit, but something lower, that the world is rejecting. A more spiritual religion will convert, not the majority, but those who ought to be with us." This book will be reviewed later.
