Origin of the Human Species de Dennis Bonnette

Origin of the Human Species: Value Inquiry Book Series, cartea 106

Autor Dennis Bonnette
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2000
This book evaluates the claims of scientific creationism versus materialistic evolution, while examining other scenarios. Consistently philosophical in methodology and perspective, the book is radically interdisciplinary in content, examining data and arguments drawn from natural science, philosophy, and theology. This work challenges the limits of human knowledge regarding every major question touching on human origins.

Recenzii

"At a time when scientism is the ruling attitude of most of the media, when solid scientific answers to questions about human origins are missing and materialistic philosophical speculations are dressed up in scientific garb, Origin of the Human Species cuts through much fog to address itself to basic philosophical questions. It will be an effective tool in teaching students about the follies of scientism." – Michael J. Behe, in: Fellowship of Catholic Scholars Quarterly, Vol. 24, No. 3 (Summer 2001)
"This very thoroughly argued book is certainly a must for all libraries maintained by educational institutions." - in: Social Justice Review 29 (January/February 2002)
"This interdisciplinary examination of human evolution incorporates philosophical, theological, and scientific perspectives." - in: Choice, Vol. 39, No. 3 (November ’01)
"Dennis Bonnette’s radically interdisciplinary book breaks new ground … It offers a rigorously scholarly, scientifically accurate, philosophically and theologically sound response to all the major questions which evolutionary theory poses to traditional biblical interpretation. …a broad spectrum of major issues touching human uniqueness and human origins are explored with a completeness never before undertaken. …" - in: The Wanderer, Vol. 134, No. 31 (August 2, 2001)
"Using the tools of philosophy, Professor Bonnette investigates the origin of true humanity. Along the way, he considers the questions of animal intelligence, the philosophical meaning of the species concept, Adam and Eve, and more. His demonstration that the standard human evolution story is compatible with Christianity makes his conclusion that the story itself may be shaky all the more impressive." – Michael J. Behe, author of Darwin’s Black Box
