First published in 1894, this fascinating volume looks at the theory of evolution in a Christian light, exploring how both can co-exist as well as the various problems and contradictions that exist between the two. Contents include: Evolution in General, The Missing Factor in Current Theories, Why was Evolution the Method Chosen, Evolution and Sociology, The Ascent of the Body, The Scaffolding Left in The Body, The Arrest of the Body, The Dawn of Mind, The Struggle for Life, The Struggle for the Life of Others, The Evolution of a Mother, Involution, etc. Rev Prof Henry Drummond (1851-1897) was a Scottish biologist, evangelist, lecturer, and writer. He had a considerable religious influence on his own generation, and his sermon The Greatest Thing in the World is still popular within Christian circles. Other notable works by this author include: Natural Law in the Spiritual World (1883), Tropical Africa (1888), and The Greatest Thing in the World: an Address (1890). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an essay on religion by James Young Simpson.
