William Dawson, LL.D., F.G.S. [Illustration] "_The name of Sir William Dawson on a title page is a guarantee of two things: one, that the book is orthodox and thoroughly evangelical; and the other, that the matter of it is first-class, according to the highest scientific standard._" --The Illustrated Christian Weekly. =The Meeting-Place of Geology and History.= Illustrated. 12mo, cloth $1.25 Sir William Dawson's aim in this volume is aptly described by the title. It is to fix with that measure of definiteness which the best and latest research permits the period when human life began on the earth, and to discuss from the geologic standpoint the many questions of interest connected with this event. He shows in how many different ways science confirms the teaching of Scripture in this department of knowledge. =Modern Ideas of Evolution as related to Revelation and Science.= _Sixth Edition, Revised and Enlarged._ 12mo, cloth 1.50 Carefully and thoroughly revised in the light of the criticism, favorable and adverse, which the preceding five editions have received. "Dr. Dawson is himself a man of eminent judicial temper, a widely read scholar, and a close, profound thinker, which makes the blow he deals the Evolution hypothesis all the heavier. We commend it to our readers as one of the most thorough and searching books on the subject yet published."--_The Christian at Work._ =The Chain of Life in Geological Time.= A Sketch of the Origin and Succession of Animals and Plants. Illustrated. _Third and Revised Edition._ 12mo, cloth 2.00 "The judicial style of the writer in argument is enlivened by his ability to render science most attractive and popular. He holds to the orthodox view of the ordered plan of the universe, and yet considers without prejudice the alluring ideas prevalent in modern scientific circles."--_The Christian Advocate_ (_N.Y._)
