Publisher's Synopsis
Evolution and Immanent God: An Essay on the Natural Theory of Evolution (1894) is a book written by William F. English that explores the relationship between evolution and the concept of God. The book is a philosophical treatise that argues that the theory of evolution does not necessarily contradict the existence of an immanent God, or a God who is present in the natural world. English examines the scientific evidence for evolution and argues that it can be understood as a natural process that is guided by a divine force. He also explores the theological implications of evolution, arguing that it can be seen as a way for God to create and sustain life on Earth. Throughout the book, English draws on a range of philosophical and theological traditions, including the work of Immanuel Kant and the Christian doctrine of creation. He also engages with the contemporary debates around evolution and religion, offering a nuanced and thoughtful perspective on the relationship between the two. Overall, Evolution and Immanent God is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on the intersection of science and religion. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the philosophy of science, theology, or the relationship between faith and reason.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
