From the Back Cover
One of the nation's foremost scholars in the history of ideas explores the impact of Darwin's evolutionary biology on the religious and intellectual thought of the past century.Review Quotes
An excellent account of 'the modern world view' on three important issues: (1) the problem of the inspiration and inerrancy of the Bible, (2) the problem of 'natural theology, ' . . . and (3) the problem of social evolution. This is intellectual history at a very high level of scholarship.-- "American Journal of Sociology"
One of the better offerings dealing with Darwin and modern thought. . . . This book should do much to call a halt to the unwholesome tendency to canonize Darwin and to form a cult of Darwinism.-- "America"
The book is based on sound, careful, and original scholarship. . . . It is most highly recommended to intellectual historians concerned with the mutual interactions between science and religion.-- "Quarterly Review of Biology"
