Abstract
AT a time when materialism appears to be at a discount, it is natural that discussions on the problem of values become more and more pressing. To such discussions, Prof. Lossky contributes an excellent monograph in which the notions of value and existence are interpreted in terms of a Neo-Platonism tempered by Christian ideals. Where true absolute concrete consubstantiality lies and how it is related to this world, are the two aspects of the problem dealt with in part 1 of the book. In the second part, which is contributed by Prof. Marshall, we find an explanation of some basic conceptions of Prof. Lossky's views.
