In many respects a most admirable effort to set forth the leading facts of evolution in the several sciences by outstanding specialists. The chapters are short and to the point, and present a high average of excellence of quality and in each instance the pronouncements come from men of outstanding reputation. The book has apparently been written for the purpose of combating the special creation hypothesis, which, to the reviewer seems a rather useless proceeding at this day and age. If science cannot stand upon its own feet by this time it certainly cannot by such a method. Each chapter is, in the reviewer's opinion, distinctly weakened rather than strengthened by its final statement on this point. Otherwise the book is highly to be commended.
