Synopsis

“Every religiously minded reader of the last four chapters of [Eddington’s] “The Nature of the Physical World” will be eager to lay hold of these additional observations of the foremost living exponent of the seen in regard to the unseen world.”

The Swarthmore Lecture series has been delivered on the evening preceding the assembly of Britain’s Friends’ Yearly Meeting each year, beginning in 1908. Astronomer and mathematician Sir Arthur Eddington’s Science and the Unseen World was delivered at Friends House, London, in 1929.
