About this title

Synopsis

""The Errors of Evolution"" is a critical examination of some of the most prominent theories in the scientific community during the late 19th century. Written by Robert Patterson, a prominent American geologist and paleontologist, the book takes a skeptical look at the nebular theory, which posits that the solar system was formed from a rotating cloud of gas and dust. Patterson also scrutinizes the geological evolution of the Earth, questioning the validity of some of the prevailing theories of the time. Additionally, the book explores the origins of life on Earth and the theory of Darwinism, which was still a relatively new concept at the time. Throughout the book, Patterson argues that many of these theories are flawed and based on insufficient evidence, and he provides alternative explanations for some of the phenomena they seek to explain. Overall, ""The Errors of Evolution"" is a thought-provoking and controversial work that challenges some of the most widely accepted ideas of its time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
