""The Absolute and the Finite Individual"" is a philosophical book written by A. Seth Pringle-Pattison, first published in 1910. The book explores the relationship between the individual and the absolute, which is understood as the ultimate reality or God. Pringle-Pattison argues that the finite individual is not separate from the absolute, but rather exists within it and is dependent upon it. He also discusses the concept of freedom and the role it plays in this relationship. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part discussing the nature of the absolute, the second part exploring the relationship between the absolute and the individual, and the third part examining the implications of this relationship for ethics and religion. Pringle-Pattison's writing is clear and accessible, making this book suitable for both students and scholars of philosophy.THIS 50 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Idea of God in the Light of Recent Philosophy, by A.
