About this title

Synopsis

Written and revised over the past three years, Creation through Evolution contains ten new essays that directly respond to the most common philosophical and theological objections put forward by Catholics who are skeptical about evolutionary theory.

Significantly, the authors use the conceptual framework of St. Thomas Aquinas as a starting point to engage in the faith and science dialogue and they take the Catechism of the Catholic Church as their starting point. The contributors believe that the solutions proposed by these essays to the disputed questions raised by skeptics are novel and robust. The contents of the essays were presented at colloquia at the University of Oxford and Providence College and were revised in response to criticisms and comments raised by the other participants at these meetings.

The chapters were written to respond to Catholic skeptics of Darwinian evolution. They are meant to be read not only by scholars but also by graduate and undergraduate students. Creation through Evolution will be of interest to the informed Catholic reader who is struggling to reconcile evolutionary theory with the claims of the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
