On the Power, Wisdom and Goodness of God as Manifested in the Creation… Volume 1
On the Power, Wisdom and Goodness of God as Manifested in the Creation of Animals and in their History, Habits and InstinctsAuthor(s): William Kirby\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Cambridge University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Cambridge University Press\nISBN-13: 9781108000741, 978-1108000741\nSynopsis\nThis extensively illustrated two-volume treatise, published in 1835, is one of a series commissioned by the Royal Society with funds bequeathed by the Earl of Bridgewater. William Kirby [tel], Cambridge graduate, country parson and respected entomologist, here combines the study of the word of God with that of his works, aiming to disprove Lamarck's hypothesis that all the works of creation can be attributed to second causes, rather than a first cause, [url] God. Kirby agrees with philosophers' objections to superstitious and bigoted adherence to the letter of scripture, but questions their lack of attention to its spirit. He explores the creation of animals in a spiritual conte.
