EDDINGTONMEMORIAL LECTURESHIP\n\nThis Lectureship was instituted in I947 with the inten-tion of providing a fitting memorial to Sir ArthurEddington,O.M.,Plumian Professor of Astronomyin the University of Cambridge from I9I3 to I944.  \nThe lectures are to deal with some aspect of con-temporary scientific thought considered in its bearingon the philosophy of religion or on ethics.It is hopedthat they will thus help to maintain and furtherEddington's concern for relating the scientific,thephilosophical and the religious methods of seekingtruth and will be a means of developing that insightinto the unity underlying these different methodswhich was his characteristic aim.  \nMan's rapidly increasing controlover natural forcesholds out prospects of material achievements that aredazzling;but unless this increased control of materialpower can be matched by a great moral and spiritualadvance,it threatens the catastrophic breakdown ofhuman civilization.Consequently,the need wasnever so urgent as now for a synthesis of the kind ofunderstanding to be gained through various ways—scientific,philosophical and religious—of seekingtruth.  \nThe Lectureship is managed by a Board of fourTrustees appointed by The Royal Society,TrinityCollege,Cambridge,and the Society of Friends.  \nW.H.THORPE,Chairman ofthe TrusteesJESUs COLLEGE,CAMBRIDGE  \nH.DIAMOND,Secretary to the Trustees45
