Arthur B. Moss (Moss, Arthur B., 1855– ) was born in 1855. His nationality, education, and professional career are not clearly recorded in publicly available sources, and verifiable information about him is very limited. Two of his works are currently held in the collection: Natural Man and Nature and the Gods. Judging from their titles and subject matter, both works deal with nature, human nature, and religious ideas, and they show a distinctly speculative character, possibly exploring the relationship between humanity and nature, conceptions of the gods, and the origins of religion. Because the primary sources are scarce, his writing style and specific arguments are difficult to assess in detail, and one can only infer that his prose tends toward argumentation and philosophical expression. The survival and inclusion of these two works suggest that they retain some reference value for discussions of these topics and may be consulted by those studying naturalism and religious thought. Overall, Moss is an author whose biographical information is sparse and whose works center on nature and the philosophy of religion.
