Abstract
EVERY year the Riddell Trust arranges for a course of lectures on “the relation between religion and contemporary development of thought”. The Lectures for 1942 deal particularly with the relation between cosmogony and religion, and it is a matter for congratulation that the trustees have found a lecturer who is well-versed in both science and theology.
