"Infinite Presence," by Dr. Geo. M. Gould, is one of the books that the profession should be eager to claim. It is not medical literature, but it treats of those topics which lie beneath the science and art of the doctor and are fundamental; topics on which the world has pondered and agonized for ages; but to comprehend the author's meaning one needs to know his earlier work. No wonder that the name "Biologos" is an enigma to the reader and reviewer who has never read Gould's "Meaning and Method of Life" (1893), but to those who have, "Biologos" will come with clearer understanding and as an old, familiar friend, for Doctor Gould seems never to have swerved in these twenty years from his belief and trust in the reality of this "Biologos," this loving, sustaining, animating and preserving power-not omnipotent but nearer to our hearts for that very reason-and this idea he carries through all his essays, sometimes half hidden, at others openly manifest-take this from the essay on "Maternal Love," as an illustration both of beauty and thought.
