Excerpt from The Key to the World's Progress: Being an Essay on Historical Logic
It may be taken for granted that like any Others in England who would aim at fruitful Apologetics, I owe much to the writings of Father George Tyrrell and Mr. Wilfrid Ward, and have attempted to utilise the stores of permanent apologetic value to be found scattered in the works of Faber. The names also of two economists, Professor W. Ashley and Dr. William Cunningham, ought here to find a place, because they have taught the present generation the great lesson that economic science without history is idle, indeed almost meaningless.
It only remains for me to thank those who have given me their personal help in this work, and to join their names, among my roll Of benefactors, to all who in my own time have laboured on the walls of Sion, and in an age Of grievous discord have been set for my guidance and consolation.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the idea that historical study should be grounded in Newmans idea of God and His importance in understanding world events. The author claims that the Christian concept of God coincides with mans innate desire for companionship with God and that it, therefore, provides the best explanation for world events. It also claims that Christianity has brought about the greatest transformative power in world history. The book examines the antinomy of theism and tries to harmonize it, giving examples from history where Christianity has transformed civilizations, language, art, and areas of thought like philosophy and politics, making this one of the few true theisms which aligns with mans spiritual life and enables humanity to grapple with larger questions of life such as pain, suffering, and loss.
