From Big Bang to Big Mystery: Human Origins in the Light of Creation and Evolution

In a fascinating, accessible and thorough study, renowned priest Brendan Purcell explores the question of human origins.

Covering a phenomenal range of material, Purcell moves easily between analysis of the various scientific perspectives on how humans are unique (emerging from a perhaps seven million year hominid sequence) and his suggestion that what is really needed is a look at why humans are unique.

This pushes the zoological/paleontological discussion into the realm of philosophy and theology and gives new life to considerations of human emergence suggesting, even, that humans are better understood as an unprecedented cultural and spiritual event. [Språk: Engelska] Häftad
