The Meaning of God in Human Experience
By WILLIAM ERNEST HOCKING, Ph.D.
The profound impression which THE MEANING OF GOD IN HUMAN EXPERIENCE, by W. E. Hocking, continues to make encourages its publishers to bring it to the attention of readers of this journal with the firm conviction that in doing so they are rendering thoughtful students of religion and life no slight service.
“These words also convey something of the sustained and convincing eloquence of thought—not enthusiastic, but simply vast and strong and careless, because sure.”
—J. W. Scott in The Hibbert Journal.
“A vital, logical presentation of the human conception and interpretation of God in present and past experience and of the foundations of religion. The author discusses with originality of thought the important trends of philosophy, pragmatic, realistic, idealistic and mystical, now touching religion, yet his conclusions are definite and constructive.
