Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Spark in the Clod: A Study in Evolution
The ends which the author has had in view are religious, not scientific. At the same time the scientific side Of the book has not been neglected or lightly considered. On the contrary, that side is based upon a careful study, extending over many years, of the chief masters Of modern Evolutionary Science. It does not enter into the plan of the work to give foot-notes and numerous references to authorities. This would change the character Of the volume, and swell its size beyond the limits thought desirable. But it is believed that no statement is made relating to the subject Of Evolution which is not borne out by the latest and best scientific writers and investigators. As to the religious thought of the book, readers must judge for themselves. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
