“Learning, fairness, love of truth, and vital earnestness are everywhere manifest in this work.”—Christian Union, New York.
“This book contains the fullest exposition we have seen of the rise and history of the abstract Darwinian theories, combined with a critical explanation of their practical application.”—Observer, New York.
“The work is full of ingenious and subtle thought, and the author, who is evidently a sincere Christian, finds in Mr. Darwin’s theories nothing inconsistent with the belief of the Scriptures.”—Bulletin, Philadelphia.
“I have carefully read the ‘Theories of Darwin,’ by Rudolf Schmid. I regard the scientific portion of the book, being about two-thirds of the whole, as the best reasoned and the most philosophic work which we have on organic development, and on Darwinism.”—President James McCosh, Princeton College.
“Those who have not time or patience to read the literature of evolution, yet desire to form a just conception of it, will find Mr. Schmid’s work of great value. It bears the imprint of an unprejudiced judgment, which may err, but not blindly, and a scholarly mind. The doctrines of Darwin are not more logically expounded and accurately sifted than is every conspicuous modifying and magnifying phase through which they have passed in the hands of German and English scientists, stated with a fidelity and courtesy as generous as we must reluctantly admit it to be rare.”—Chicago Tribune.
