About this book
In an era marked by the clash between science and philosophy, "Life and Matter: A Criticism of Professor Haeckel's 'Riddle of the Universe'" by Sir Oliver Lodge emerges as a pivotal examination of materialism and monism. Lodge meticulously dissects Haeckel’s assertions, challenging the notion that life can be wholly understood through physical processes alone. Through his rigorous analysis, he defends the complexity of existence against reductionist views, emphasizing the importance of both spiritual and scientific perspectives. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians alike, this work invites readers to engage with profound questions about the nature of life and consciousness. Discover how Lodge’s insights resonate in contemporary debates about science and philosophy.
