About this book

A naturalist who accepted evolution but doubted that natural selection explains it, St. George Mivart set out his case in this 1871 book. The chapters list difficulties for the Darwinian view, among them the giraffe, the heads of flatfishes, whalebone, the eye and the ear, and the way similar structures appear in animals of different descent. The introduction also takes up how the theory bears on religious questions. The dedication is to Sir Henry Holland, whom Mivart calls his earliest scientific friend.
