Evolution, The Stone Book, And The Mosaic Record Of Creation (1878)

Evolution, The Stone Book, And The Mosaic Record Of Creation is a book written by Thomas Cooper in 1878. The book is an attempt to reconcile the theory of evolution with the biblical account of creation. Cooper was a British philosopher, scientist, and educator who believed in the compatibility of science and religion.The book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the theory of evolution and its implications for the biblical account of creation. Cooper argues that the theory of evolution does not necessarily contradict the Bible, but rather provides a scientific explanation for the process of creation.The second part of the book is titled ""The Stone Book"" and is a detailed examination of the geological record. Cooper argues that the geological record supports the theory of evolution and provides evidence for the gradual development of life on Earth.The third and final part of the book is titled ""The Mosaic Record of Creation"" and is a discussion of the biblical account of creation. Cooper argues that the biblical account is not meant to be taken literally, but rather as a symbolic representation of the creation of the world.Overall, Evolution, The Stone Book, And The Mosaic Record Of Creation is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between science and religion, and an attempt to reconcile the two worldviews.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
