Synopsis
""Astronomy and General Physics Considered with Reference to Natural Theology"" is a book written by William Whewell that explores the relationship between science and religion. The book examines the principles of astronomy and physics and how they relate to the natural world and the existence of God. Whewell argues that the laws of nature are evidence of a divine creator and that scientific discoveries can be used to support religious beliefs. The book also includes discussions on topics such as the nature of light, the properties of matter, and the structure of the universe. Overall, ""Astronomy and General Physics Considered with Reference to Natural Theology"" provides a comprehensive look at the intersection of science and religion in the 19th century.1837. Whewell's object is to lead friends of religion to look with confidence and pleasure on the progress of the physical sciences, by showing how admirably every advance in our knowledge of the universe harmonizes with the belief of a most wise and good God. The Contents of this book are divided into three Books: Terrestrial Adaptations; Cosmical Arrangements; and Religious Views.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Lordship is one of its members; and I am persuaded that any effort in the cause of letters and religion coming from that quarter, will have for you an interest beyond what it would otherwise possess. The subject proposed to me was limited; my prescribed object is to lead the friends of religion to look with confidence and pleasure on the progress of the physical sciences, by showing how admirably every advance in our knowledge of the universe harmonizes with the belief of a most wise and good God. To do this effectually may be, I trust, a useful labour. Yet, I feel most deeply, what I would take this occasion to express, that this, and all that the speculator concerning Xatural Theology can do, is utterly insufficient for the great ends of Religion; namely, for the purpose of reforming mens lives, of purifying and elevating their characters, of preparing them for a more exalted state of being.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
