The Essence of Darwinism (PDF)

PDF file size: 1.1mb



Is Darwinism true? Is it the only theory that can explain our origins? Should we care? Are we taking the wisdom of Genesis seriously enough?



The Essence of Darwinism provides a compact and accessible summary of where Darwinian theory currently stands, and how it has changed and developed over the last 150 years. More importantly, Dr Birkett provides a compelling argument as to why debates about evolution and Darwinism are so stubbornly religious, and why the biblical view is so often portrayed as the enemy of Darwinism.



For anyone who wants to really understand Darwinism, and its relation to biblical Christianity, this short straightforward book is the place to start.



Dr Kirsten Birkett is a graduate of the University of New South Wales who has continued as a writer and researcher, mainly in her specialty of the history and philosophy of science. She was the editor of the quarterly journal kategoria: a critical review.
