Abstract
PROF. ALEXANDER MAIR, Whose death occurred on Oct. 7 at the comperatively early age of fifty- seven years, had occupied the chair of philosophy at the University of liverpool since 1910. Although he made no direct contribution to purely scientific research, he was always keenly interested in recent developments of scientific theory, and extremely appreciative of their wider philosophic implications. He was the author of the articles on “Hallucination” and “Belief” in “The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics,” of “Philosophy and Reality” (published 1911), and of “Immanence and Transcendence,” and “The Idea of Transcendent Deity,” in recent volumes of the Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society.
