Description: "Although a lot has been written about the impact of charles Darwin's intellectual legacy on Christian thought in general, little has focused specifically on his impact on the Catholic tradition, taken as a whole. This volume is meant to fill this gap in the literature. It explores the influence of Darwin'd ideas on Catholicism as an interaction between two worldviews, an interaction stretching over a period of, roughly, 150 years." --from Preface.
