This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Meaning of Evolution Papa, who made me? I told him God, and he knew enough and was content with his knowledge. After a while he grew older and his inquisitive spirit began to puzzle with the question of how God had made him. When his growing mind was ready for the new knowledge I took him to my side and told him the great mystery of life. I told him how he owed to his father and to his mother the beginnings of his life, how God gave him to us. Now a new era opened in his childish mind. AS he grows on to greater maturity he cannot help wondering how the first man was made, how the trees, and the world came to be. He is no longer satisfied with the simple state ment that God made them. His eager mind wants to know, if may be, how God made them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution and the Need of Atonement As the title indicates, the main object of this book is not to offer a new theory of the Atonement. Rather it is intended to Show that when the origin and history of man are studied from the scientific, and especially the biological side, the spiritual life, its partial failure, and the need for Atonement, far from receding into vagueness and unreality, are thrown into strong relief.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Meaning of Organic Evolution We cannot let go of the past nor the past of us. We are out of 'the past and must live upon foundations there laid. The problem of intelligent growth and progress in life is, with ripening time, to replace what is outgrown and noxious in these foundations with the strong elements of the new in such a way as to keep intact the framework of the high ideas and ideals won and proved in the past struggles of the race and coming to us as a priceless heritage. Our problem is one of assimilation, not one of destruction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book EVOLUTION written by Michael Ruse and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 992 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning evolutionary science from its inception to its latest findings, from discoveries and data to philosophy and history, this book is the most complete, authoritative, and inviting one-volume introduction to evolutionary biology available. Clear, informative, and comprehensive in scope, Evolution opens with a series of major essays dealing with the history and philosophy of evolutionary biology, with major empirical and theoretical questions in the science, from speciation to adaptation, from paleontology to evolutionary development (evo devo), and concluding with essays on the social and political significance of evolutionary biology today. A second encyclopedic section travels the spectrum of topics in evolution with concise, informative, and accessible entries on individuals from Aristotle and Linneaus to Louis Leakey and Jean Lamarck; from T. H. Huxley and E. O. Wilson to Joseph Felsenstein and Motoo Kimura; and on subjects from altruism and amphibians to evolutionary psychology and Piltdown Man to the Scopes trial and social Darwinism. Readers will find the latest word on the history and philosophy of evolution, the nuances of the science itself, and the intricate interplay among evolutionary study, religion, philosophy, and society. Appearing at the beginning of the Darwin Year of 2009Ñthe 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin and the 150th anniversary of the publication of the Origin of SpeciesÑthis volume is a fitting tribute to the science Darwin set in motion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Universal Evolution Finality assumes that a personality, comprehensible to man, created the universe out of nothing. That is, everything is given. But there is no nothingness. Noth ing is a relative term. If one tfies to perceive, or con ceive nothing, he finds it impossible, because, in making the effort he, himself, is still existing, or he could not be perceiving it. If he could succeed in annihilating both himself and notself, then there would be no perception, nor conception of the fact. Therefore we use the word nothing to mean, there is always something. It is, there fore, not logical to think that anything was created out of nothing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Doctrine of Evolution by : Henry Edward Crampton
Download or read book The Doctrine of Evolution written by Henry Edward Crampton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-26 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctrine of Evolution: Its Basis and Its Scope The present volume consists of a series of eight addresses delivered as the Hewitt Lectures of Columbia University at Cooper Union in New York City during the months of February and March, 1907. The purpose of these lectures was to describe in concise outline the Doctrine of Evolution, its basis in the facts of natural history, and its wide and universal scope. They fall naturally into two groups. Those of the first part deal with matters of definition, with the essential character istics of living things, and, at greater length, with the evidences of organic evolution. The lectures of the second group take up the various aspects of human evolution as a special instance of the general organic process. In this latter part of the series, the subject of physical evolution is first considered, and this is followed by an analysis of human mental evolution; the chapter on social evolution extends the funda mental principles to a field which is not usually con sidered by biologists, and its purpose is to demonstrate the efficiency of the genetic method in this department as in all others; finally, the principles are extended to what is called the higher human life, the realm, namely, of ethical, religious, and theological ideas and ideals.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Evolution (Classic Reprint) written by Benjamin Thompson Lowne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Evolution IN presenting the following pages to the public, the author wishes it to be understood that he does not expect to convert any to a belief in evolution. He addresses those who accept the doctrine in some form or other as established, although he has endeavoured, as concisely as possible, to present the reader with the reasons for accepting it. Those who remain un convinced by the elaborate works of Darwin, Spencer, and others will probably not accept the views enunci ated in these pages, which, however, it is hoped, will not be unacceptable to many who wish to reconcile the theory of evolution with the highest aims of human thought.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Unleashing of Evolutionary Thought Such a venture necessarily becomes at first a closer look at meaningful parts of the new revelation of science, with the intent of finding its full meaning. It next becomes a tour of the several areas - schools, news sources, churches, theaters, ordinance and law - where that meaning struggles against an entrenched and resolute opponent for a beachhead in institutions that re ect man's social goals and his thoughts about himself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution at the Bar Our design, in writing these pages (originally pre pared for use in the compilation of a Bible Cyclopedia by the Bible Union of China) was to set forth the main features of the theory of Evolution in such a way as to make it easy to be understood by the unlearned. The exponents of science and philosophy usually adopt a style and vocabulary which effectually hide their meaning from the common people, and which are well calculated to produce the impression that the subjects they discuss are too mysterious and profound to be understood by any but the few who (like them selves) are gifted with intellects of a superior order, and possessed of knowledge unattainable by the ordi nary man.

Book Synopsis Evolution (Classic Reprint) by : James Anderson Scott Watson
Download or read book Evolution (Classic Reprint) written by James Anderson Scott Watson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution The idea of Evolution is an old one. It is older than the Darwinian hypothesis it is older than Lamarck, who published his particular theory in 1809, the year that Darwin was born; it is older than Buffon or Kant. In a fairly definite form it is as old as Aristotle. The Evolution idea has thus itself evolved, and is the product of many centuries of thought. Yet it was only the last generation that began to give the idea serious considera tion, and it is perhaps only the present that has granted it any general measure of acceptance and it was Darwin who wrought this change, who raised the conception of Evolution from the status of a vague speculative idea to that of a well-grounded theory, which appeals to the majority of educated minds as satisfactory and reasonable. We do not here propose to sketch the development of the idea, either before or after Darwin but only, in the first place, to state the grounds on which the belief in Evolution is based, and, in the second, to trace roughly the lines along which animal Evolution has proceeded. In the first few pages of this book, then, we shall endeavour to bring forward some of the evidence on which the modern Evolution theory rests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution and Religion I AM afraid I shall lay myself open to the charge of having adopted a very ambitious title for this book but the size alone is sufficient to convince any one that it is not intended to cover the extensive fields of Evolution and Religion. My object is not to teach evolution, far less theology; but, by placing some of the leading facts of each subject side by side, to call attention to their natural connection. Through the labours of Wolff, Lamarck, and especially Darwin, belief in creation has given place to the idea of gradual development in the world of life; as had previously been the case in regard to the inorganic world. Since the publication of Darwin's Origin of Species, the theory of evolution has invaded every department of thought and enquiry, and has revolutionized men's views upon many of the most important subjects. Scientifically, creation is a word now almost without meaning. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theory of Evolution: With Special Reference to the Evidence Upon Which It Is Founded A new book on evolution, which can lay little claim to novelty of fact or treatment, certainly demands an explanation, if not an apology. My choice of subject for the Westbrook lectures Of 1914 was determined by the very general misapprehension in the public mind concerning the present status Of the evolutionary theory among men Of science. It is widely believed that the theory is an outworn device, which naturalists are beginning to discard and that soon it will have a merely historical in terest. This misunderstanding, for such it is, has arisen from the debates among zoologists and botan ists as to the manner in which evolution has actually occurred and the efficient causes which have brought it about, and, further, from the ambiguous way in which the term Darwinism is Often employed. Frequently, the term is made a synonym of evolu tion, but it ought properly to be restricted to Dar win's explanation Of evolution by natural selection.

Book Synopsis Theology of Evolution by : E. D. Cope
Download or read book Theology of Evolution written by E. D. Cope and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theology of Evolution: A Lecture Then it includes, secondly, the operations of the human heart; the affairs of the heart, matters of faith, questions of feeling, our hopes and fears, anxieties and wishes with regard to one or more supernatural beings, including all of that peculiar instinct which belongs to man everywhere and all over the world, which makes him look upwards, as well as downwards, towards what we call the unknown, or what some have been pleased to call the unknowable. All of this falls within the metaphysical department of the affections or of the emotions. The third department is that of ethics - the practical question of conduct between man and man; of good conduct and of bad conduct. As such, this belongs, not to the department of science, but to the department of applied science in a large sense, or that to which arts pertain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution Theory, Vol. 1 of 2 The actual form of these lectures has developed as they were transcribed. But although the form is thus to some extent new, I have followed in the main the same train of thought as in the lectures of recent years. The lecture form has been adhered to in the book, not merely because of the greater vividness of presentation which it implies, but for many other reasons, of which the greater freedom in the choice of material and the limiting of quotation to a minimum are not the least. That all polemics of a personal kind have thus been excluded will not injure the book, but it is by no means lacking in discussions of opinion, and will, therefore, I trust, contribute something towards the clearing up of disputed points.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution and the Origin of Life "To experience we refer, as the only ground of all physical inquiry. But before experience itself can be used with advantage, there is one preliminary step to make, which depends wholly on ourselves: it is the absolute dismissal and clearing of the mind of all prejudice from whatever source arising, and the determination to stand or fall by the result of a direct appeal to facts in the first instance, and of strict logical deduction from them afterwards." Sir John Herschel: Discourse on the Study of Natural Philosophy. "The fair question is, Does the newly proposed view remove more difficulties, require fewer assumptions, and present more consistency with observed facts than that which it seeks to supersede? if so the philosopher will adopt it, and the world will follow the philosopher - after many days."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution, Vol. 1 Evolution The word is in every mouth. A vague, Often an incorrect conception Of its meaning in the field of biology and with reference to the origin of Man, has reached the popular mind, and stirred it to further investigation and inquiry. Even in its biological aspects, the doctrine of Evolution is seen to touch the great problems of religion and philosophy of origin and destiny. But it is beginning to be understood that not alone as an explana tion of the method whereby living forms have been produced and developed is this doctrine alive with human interest and pregnant with important influences upon human thought and human wel fare. Evolution, reaching backward, takes hold upon the great cosmic problems of the birth and growth of worlds, the nature of Matter and Spirit, the relation Of the phenomenal Universe to its efficient Cause. Reaching forward, it touches and illuminates the pressing problems of ethics and sociology, Offering to the careful student wise instruction for his guidance in all the practical affairs Of life.
