Excerpt from Facts Theories: Being a Consideration of Some Biological Conceptions of to-Day
It may perhaps be thought by some that I have omitted a number of points which I might have included in this book - such, for example, as that of the question of poly or mono-phyletic evolution. To this I can only reply that it seemed to me to be better to confine myself to a few of the greater problems, and this lest I should obscure the main trend of my argument.

Excerpt from Facts Theories: Being a Consideration of Some Biological Conceptions of to-Day
A considerable amount of the matter which makes up this little volume has already appeared in the pages of the Catholic World; and to its editor, the Rev. J. J. Burke, C.S.P., I must return my thanks for his kind permission to reproduce it here. To this I have added about an equal amount of fresh matter - if, indeed, that can be called fresh which has in part already appeared in other pamphlets and books of mine.
These pages are intended to present a popular account of certain fundamental biological problems and conceptions as they stand at the moment, and an appreciation of their bearing upon the beliefs of Catholics - indeed, I think I might say of all persons holding the main doctrines of Christianity, for it is against these main doctrines that the attack is being made to-day. The old form of polemic is, if not dead, at least on its death-bed,and no longer affects intelligent and thinking people.
