This 1896 volume by Reverend J. A. Zahm, a professor of physics at the University of Notre Dame, considers the Catholic theological tradition as it relates to evolution. The author discusses Darwin's theory of evolution in detail, and traces the debate between theologians and scientists back to the early days of evolutionary theory. He compares late nineteenth-century evolutionary theory and the beliefs of the Catholic church, carefully evaluating the arguments and probing errors and misconceptions in theory and terminology. He also attempts to shed light on the little-understood relations between evolutionism and Christianity as a whole, and discusses whether a person of any Christian denomination can be an evolutionist. Zahm's thoughtful work is considered to be one of the most important volumes on evolution ever written by a Catholic.

The american priest John Augustine Zahm describes his tour from Germany's capital Berlin to the east. He explains his travels, the people he met and the countries he saw. The reader will be taken to a journey early in the 20th century to historic places like traveling the Bagdad Railway and along the trade routes of the near east, floating down the Tigris or experiences with the Islam in the past and the present.
