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. This book is a reprint of the original from
