This article literally appraises the book "The Social Evolution of Religion," by George Willis Cooke. The author says that this book contains fifty years' study of religion, but there is not the slightest suspicion in it of an old man's conservatism. Few books about religion are more radical, more fearless, more resolutely faced toward the future than this one designed to set forth the doctrine that religion is a social product and that its end lies in the same plane as its source.
