Book Reviews of Religion in the Making: Lowell Lectures, 1926
Book Review: Bare, beautiful spirituality
Summary: 5 Stars
In his other books, and especially in Process and Reality, Whitehead's prose can be so dense as to discourage all but the most determined readers. But Religion in the Making, while occasionally technical, is Whitehead at his simplest and most elegant. Reading this book, written just three years before P&R, will show people who have been exposed to "process theology" that Whitehead's own beliefs about God were really much more simple and poetic. The great Cambridge-Harvard philosopher's spirituality boils down to a single sentence in the midst of Religion in the Making: "Expression is the one fundamental sacrament."
