In giving these Lectures to the public, I desire in the first place to express my sincere thanks to the Senatus A cademicus of the University of A berdeen, who, by honouring me with their invitation to fill a place which has been filled in the past by men of my unworthiness to succeed whom I am acutely sensible, have given me a welcome opportunity of drawing together my thoughts, such as they are and I am very well aware of their inadequacy upon a subject of central importance in the Philosophy of Religion, and of deep concern to many persons who, while laying no claim to philosophical culture, are anxious to form a reasonable judgment of the value to be attached to the re Ugious language and imagery with which they are familiar. In the second place, I have to thank my own College in Oxford for generously granting me leave of absence in term time to enable me to avail myself of the invitation I had received from A berdeen. Lastly, I wish to acknowledge the manifold help which I have received from my wife in the work of preparing the Lectures alike for delivery and for publication.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a philosophical examination of the nature of personality and the question of whether it can be ascribed to God. The author traces the history of the word "person" and the development of the idea of personality in general. He then explores the arguments for and against the existence of a personal God, drawing on insights from theology, philosophy, and religious experience. The book concludes by reflecting on the significance of personality in human life and its implications for our understanding of the divine. The author argues that the concept of a personal God is both coherent and meaningful and that it provides a framework for understanding the relationship between humanity and the divine.
