This book is sent forth in the midst of an intellectual conflict involving no less than the continued existence of any Christendom at all. Wearied with the clang of the opposing pleas, and noticing that disputes are seldom settled till their arguments are forgotten, Mr. Martineau thought his best offering to the needs of our time would be a volume in aid of personal religion.
