Description
"Among the leading American intellectuals of the late nineteenth century, Joseph LeConte (1823-1901) was a prominent and popular scientist, philosopher, and educator. An early champion in this country of the ideas of Charles Darwin, he was a central figure in the attempts to reconcile the theory of evolution with Christian teachings."--Book jacket.
