EVOLUTION OF MAN AND CHRISTIANITY.
New edition. By the Rev. HOWARD MACQUEARY. With a new Preface, in which the Author answers his Critics, and with some important Additions, 12mo. Cloth, $1.75.
“This is a revised and enlarged edition of a book published last year. The author reviews criticisms upon the first edition, denies that he rejects the doctrine of the incarnation, admits his doubts of the physical resurrection of Christ, and his belief in evolution. The volume is to be marked as one of the most profound expressions of the modern movement toward broader theological positions.”—Brooklyn Times.
HISTORY OF THE CONFLICT BETWEEN RELIGION AND SCIENCE. By Dr. JOHN WILLIAM DRAPER. 12mo. Cloth, $1.75.
“The keynote to this volume is found in the antagonism between the progressive tendencies of the human mind and the pretensions of ecclesiastical authority, as developed in the history of modern science. No previous writer has treated the subject from this point of view, and the present monograph will be found to possess no less originality of conception than vigor of reasoning and wealth of erudition.”—New York Tribune.
A CRITICAL HISTORY OF FREE THOUGHT IN REFERENCE TO THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION. By Rev. Canon ADAM STOREY FARRAR, D.D., F.R.S., etc. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
“A conflict might naturally be anticipated between the reasoning faculties of man and a religion which claims the right, on superhuman authority, to impose limits on the field or manner of their exercise. It is the chief of the movements of free thought which it is my purpose to describe, in their historic succession and their connection with intellectual causes. We must ascertain the facts, discover the causes, and read the moral.”—The Author.
CREATION OR EVOLUTION? A Philosophical Inquiry. By GEORGE TICNOR CURTIS. 12mo. Cloth, $2.00.
“A treatise on the great question of Creation or Evolution by one who is neither a naturalist nor theologian, and who does not profess to bring to the discussion a special equipment in either of the sciences which the controversy arrays against each other, may seem strange at first sight; but Mr. Curtis will satisfy the reader, before many pages have been turned, that he has a substantial contribution to make to the debate, and that his book is one to be treated with respect. His part is to apply to the reasonings of the men of science the rigid scrutiny with which the lawyer is accustomed to test the value and pertinency of testimony, and the legitimacy of inferences from established facts.”—New York Tribune.
