The book titled ""The Spirit of Man, Being Essays from The Times"" is a collection of essays written by James Marchant, a British author and journalist. The essays explore various aspects of human nature, including the mind, the soul, and the spirit. Marchant delves into topics such as the meaning of life, the nature of consciousness, and the role of spirituality in human experience. He draws on a wide range of sources, including philosophy, religion, literature, and science, to offer insights into the human condition. The essays were originally published in The Times newspaper in the early 20th century and have been compiled into this book for readers interested in exploring the complexities of the human spirit.It is a striking illustration of the present widespread interest in religion that a great newspaper like �������The Times������� should have given a column, week by week, for several years, to an essay dealing with the moral and spiritual life. Many of these essays have qualities of style, of thought, of spirit which make it natural to wish that they should be preserved in a form more accessible than the files of a newspaper. Accordingly, in this book, a selection and a rearrangement of them have been made.
