Publisher's Synopsis
The Interpreters of Genesis and the Interpreters of Nature is a book written by Thomas H. Huxley. The book explores the conflict between the biblical interpretation of creation and the scientific explanation of evolution. Huxley examines the different interpretations of the book of Genesis and how they have been used to justify various beliefs and practices, including the idea of a literal six-day creation. He also discusses the history of the scientific study of nature, from the early natural philosophers to the modern scientists. Huxley argues that the scientific method is the best way to understand the natural world and that it is incompatible with the literal interpretation of Genesis. The book is a thoughtful and insightful analysis of the ongoing debate between religion and science and the ways in which they can be reconciled.THIS 30 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Science and Hebrew Tradition Essays, by Thomas H.
