In an age defined by scientific triumph and spiritual uncertainty, Religious Faith and Twentieth-Century Man confronts one of the most urgent questions of modern existence: can a thinking, rational person genuinely hold religious faith in a world reshaped by science, psychology, and global conflict? F. C. Happold, drawing on a lifetime of intellectual inquiry, argues that authentic faith is not an antiquated relic but a living, evolving response to the deepest human needs — and that the crisis of belief in the modern era demands a serious, rigorous re-examination of what religion truly means. Happold's work sits at a remarkable crossroads of theology, mysticism, and philosophy, presenting a synthesis that is both accessible and intellectually formidable. His style is measured and humane, never condescending, guiding the reader through centuries of religious thought to illuminate the spiritual dilemmas unique to the twentieth century. A Pelican Original, this volume belongs to a distinguished tradition of serious non-fiction aimed at the inquiring general reader — and its central challenge, whether humanity can forge a faith adequate to the demands of modern consciousness, remains as compelling and unresolved as ever.
