1870 GEORGE FIELD. The Two Great Books of Nature and Revelation. Christian-Aristotelian Work.
A fascinating work exploring the philosophical relationship of the material world to the "logos of God," or the material world as the logos of God, more properly, after a more optimistic, Aristotelian model of immanence and transcendence. Fairly rare on the market.
