Description - John Tyndall's Transcendental Materialism and the Conflict Between Religion and Science in Victorian England by Stephen S. Kim
A study of the contribution to the secularization of Victorian culture made by John Tyndall, who, as a natural philosopher and colleague of Charles Darwin, Thomas Huxley and Louis Pasteur, succeeded Michael Faraday as the Superindentent of the Royal Institution of Great Britain in 1870.
