Exploring the tradition by sampling the thought of significant contributors to it, Peden (emeritus philosophy, Augusta State U.) begins by looking at four figures from the last half of the 19th century who participated in the Free Religious Association, which supported free religion, the scientific method, and evolution. They are Francis Ellingwood Abbot, William James Potter, David Atwood Wasson, and Minot Judson Savage. Then he turns to eight people associated with the Chicago School, ranging in date from Shailer Mathews (1863-1941) through Edward Scibner Amers (1870-1958) and Shirley Jackson Case (1872-1947) to Bernard Eugene Meland (1899-1993). In each case, he is only concerned with their thinking about the interplay between science, philosophy, and religion. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
