Summary

"The Substance of Faith Allied with Science (6th Ed.)" by Oliver Lodge is a guide from the early 1900s that deals with how science and religion can be understood together. It's mainly about teaching kids, parents, and teachers how faith fits with what we know from science, pushing for a modern view of spirituality. The book starts by talking about how it's hard to teach religion when science keeps changing what we know, but it argues that real knowledge combines both faith and scientific discoveries. The author lays out ways to explain important religious ideas that also make sense with science, promoting a faith that keeps up with the times and encourages people to be good and live together peacefully.

About the Author

Sir Oliver Joseph Lodge was an English physicist and writer involved in the development of, and holder of key patents for, radio. He identified electromagnetic radiation independent of Hertz's proof and at his 1894 Royal Institution lectures, Lodge demonstrated an early radio wave detector he named the "coherer". In 1898 he was awarded the "syntonic" patent by the United States Patent Office. Lodge was Principal of the University of Birmingham from 1900 to 1920.
