God and my Neighbour by Robert Blatchford
page 7 of 267 (02%)
For the reader's own satisfaction, then, and for the sake of justice
to my cause, I shall venture to suggest a list of books whose contents
will atone for all my failures and omissions. And I am justified, I
think, in saying that no reader who has not read the books I recommend,
or others of like scope and value, can fairly claim to sit on the jury
to try this case.

And of these books I shall, first of all, heartily recommend the series
of cheap sixpenny reprints now published by the Rationalist Press
Association, Johnson's Court, London, E.C.

R.P.A. REPRINTS
Huxley's _Lectures and Essays._
Tyndall's _Lectures and Essays._
Laing's _Human Origins._
Laing's _Modern Science and Modern Thought._
Clodd's _Pioneers of Evolution._
Matthew Arnold's _Literature and Dogma._
Haeckel's _Riddle of the Universe._
Grant Allen's _Evolution of the Idea of God._
Cotter Morrison's _Service of Man._
Herbert Spencer's _Education._

Some Apologists have, I am sorry to say, attempted to disparage
those excellent books by alluding to them as "Sixpenny Science"
and "Cheap Science." The same method of attack will not be
available against most of the books in my next list:

_The Golden Bough_, Frazer. Macmillan, 36s.
_The Legend of Perseus_, Hartland. D. Nutt, 25s.
