Excerpt from The Hand of God and Other Posthumous Essays: Together With Some Reprinted Papers
This admitted, the value of what r'-r.mt Allen tells us about the later (in themselves immeasurably early) stages of the development of the world's religions is not to be easily over-estimated. His skill in disentangling a mass of material and presenting it in coherent form his insight into its significance, and in the resolution of the funda mental elements of which it is composed, are remarkable. What is apparent in his writings was yet more so in his talk, and in this they who were privileged to hear it will testify that it brought them into Contact with one of the most fertile and suggestive minds of our time.
