Title of a book by Dorlodot, of Louvain, in which he attempts to prove that several of the Fathers of the Church favored the theory of evolution. He quotes only a few and the quotations are not convincing. The author died before finishing the second volume which was to contain his own views. A refutation of the volume, published so far as Saint Augustine's views are concerned, was written by Henry Woods, S.J., entitled: "Seminal Reasons."
