Evolution from a Christian Standpoint.
Hark. The Unity of the Truth, in Christianity and Evolution. By J. Max Hark D.D. 12 mo, 293 pages. Small Pica type, leaded, cloth, gilt top, 90c. (40c)
“A thoughtful and scholarly work, written in the interest of persons who are bewildered by the teaching of unbelieving evolutionists.”—Christian Standard, Cincinnati, O.
“No one can be more sure and clear than Dr. Hark, that whatever may hereafter come to be the final, clearly and indisputably settled results of scientific examination, they will be found to be in perfect accordance with the equally carefully ascertained teachings of the Christian revelation. In that firm faith we may all agree and encourage science to the most diligent examination, only bidding it not to be too sure of its conclusions until the evidence is complete.”—The Lutheran, Philadelphia, Pa.
Evolution Again.
“Rich, delicate, robust.” R. S. Storrs, D. D.
Parker. The Spirit of Beauty. Essays, scientific and æsthetic, by Prof. Henry W. Parker; large 12mo, cloth, gilt top, 85c. (25c)
“I have been delighted, instructed and morally animated by The Spirit of Beauty. It gives rich, delicate and robust expression to a various knowledge, as well as to fine, devout and far-reaching thought. I have not for long taken up a book which has interested me so immediately, or refreshed me so abundantly.”—Rev. R. S. Storrs, D.D.
“Every page shows the author’s warm sympathy alike with what is best in modern scientific and Christian thought—his enthusiasm for nature, for humanity and for God.”—The Advance, Chicago, Ill.
“It is not the ‘bigoted’ theologian who rises this time in the higher interests of humanity, but the trained and well-informed scientist. It is an arrow from within the fort, and its destructive power is all the greater because the bowman himself takes ‘some stock in Darwin’s Origin of Species.’ The fact that the bow has been bent not directly for the purpose of rescuing religion, but for the rescue of beauty and art and morality and civilization from the toils of a false science, will give the book a hearing where the argument from religious grounds would have none. We know of no better book to be placed into the hands of the college student or young doctor or lawyer whose casual reading or not wholly mature thinking has infected him with agnostic or Spencerian views.”—The Lutheran, Philadelphia, Pa.
