igion_, pp. 240-281. This latter is a volume of ten essays by well-known German religious teachers. [14] The President of the British Association (1912) states in his address that it is not within his province to touch the question concerning the nature of the soul. I take the report of his address from _Nature_, 5th September. Dr Haldane goes much further in the direction of Vitalism (discussion at British Association on the subject). [15] _Cf._ Driesch: _Philosophy of the Organism_; _Vitalismus als Geschichte und Lehre_; his article in _Lebensanschauung_ (a collection of essays by twenty German thinkers, 1911); Reinke's _Philosophie der Botanik_; McDougall's _Body and Mind_; Thomson's _Heredity, Evolution_, and _Introduction to Science_ (the two latter in the Home University Library). Bergson's _Creative Evolution_ deals with the subject, but the value of this book is greater in other directions. T.H. Morgan's _Regeneration_ is a weighty contribution to the subject. [16] A revival of the study of Kant's first _Critique_ would be of great value to our natural scientists. Green, in his _Prolegomena to Ethics_, has interpreted this aspect in a manner that ought not to be forgotten. _Cf._ further Edward Caird's _Evolution of Religion_, vol. i. [17] Ward's _Naturalism and Agnosticism_, vol. i., is a reply to this important question. [18] _Cf._ Muensterberg's _Psychology and Education_, and his _Eternal Values_; also Royce's _The World and the Individual_. [19] This trans-subjective aspect has been worked out in an original way by Volkelt in his _Quellen der menschlichen Gewisskeit_. [20] The works of Muensterberg and Rickert deal with great clearness on this difference of subject-matter in science and history. [21] The main weakness of Bergson's philosophy seems to be in not recognising this problem. Bosanquet, in his _Principle of Individuality and Value_, has very clearly recognised and interpreted it upon similar lines to Eucken. [22] In this respect Eucken and Bergson seem to agree, although it is difficult to reconcile this aspect of Bergson's with his statements concerning the grasping of reality in the perceptions of the moment.
