In 1884 the long-running annual series of Bampton Lectures at the
University of Oxford was given by Frederick Temple, at that time
Bishop of Exeter. He had earlier been a prominent educational
reformer, headmaster at Rugby School and chaplain to Queen
Victoria, and he later rose to become Archbishop of Canterbury.
This book contains his Bampton Lectures on The Relations between
Religion and Science - perhaps the most passionately debated topic
of that time. He discusses the apparent conflict between scientific
and religious beliefs on various topics including free will,
knowledge, evolution, and supernatural power, but concludes that
science and religion are not foes, but counterparts, and that
neither is complete without the other. His contribution in this
area is of lasting importance in the history and philosophy of
science.
