Chance more than anything else brought these four books on religion together on the reviewer's desk. All four of books "Faith and Health," by Charles Reynolds Brown, "The Social Origins of Christianity," by Shirley Jackson Case, "Imperialistic Religion and the Religion of Democracy," by William Adams Brown and "The Religion of Social Passion," by Charles Henry Dickinson are written from the point of view of liberal Protestantism and while they are not primarily controversial and do not pretend to cover the whole of Protestant philosophy, one may fairly consider them as to some degree an answer to the inquirer who seeks to know something of the message of modernism to times.
