Abstract

Did Man Get Here by Evolution or by Creation? is a book whose publication date, 1967, indicates that the doctrine of evolution is still being rejected today by at least some segments of the intellectual community. As reverberations of the nationally famous Scopes trial continue, it may be profitable to inquire into the principles which contemporary biologists utilize in explaining the general course of evolution. For it would seem that, if these scientific principles were sufficiently cogent, there could be no valid reason for questioning the doctrine.
