About this book

Henry Drummond's widely read book of 1883, which argues that the spiritual world is governed by laws as real as those of nature. By analogy, as life in nature comes only from life, so spiritual life comes only from Christ, and Drummond leads his readers toward the new birth. A famous bridge between Victorian science and evangelical faith.
