Substance and Shadow or Morality and Religion in their Relation to Life: An Essay upon the Physics of Creation is a philosophical work written by American author Henry James in 1863. The book explores the relationship between morality, religion, and the physical world, discussing how they intersect and influence one another. James argues that while morality and religion are essential to human life, they must be grounded in a scientific understanding of the physical world in order to be fully realized. He examines various philosophical and scientific theories, including those of Immanuel Kant and Charles Darwin, to support his argument. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the topic, and includes extensive footnotes and references to other works. Overall, Substance and Shadow is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of existence and the role of morality and religion in shaping our lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
