About this eBook

Author Hoare, Edward, 1812-1894
Title Evolution
Credits Transcribed from the [1885?] Elliot Stock edition by David Price
Summary "Evolution" by Rev. Edward Hoare, M.A. is a scientific publication likely written in the late 19th century. The book engages critically with the theory of evolution, especially the ideas popularized by Charles Darwin and others, as it explores the implications of these theories on both the understanding of natural history and theological perspectives. It presents an analysis of the concept of evolution, distinguishing between established scientific facts and the theories that attempt to explain them. In "Evolution," Hoare emphasizes the differences between observation and interpretation in scientific inquiry. He discusses growth, variation, and progression as observable phenomena in nature, yet expresses skepticism about evolutionary theory as a comprehensive explanation of life's complexity. He rigorously critiques the lack of evidence supporting the notion that species evolve from common ancestors and argues for a view that upholds the notion of distinct creations according to divine design. Throughout the text, Hoare advocates for a careful analysis of evolutionary claims, urging recognition of both scientific inquiry and theological conviction in understanding the natural world.
