| Summary: | "In this age of bold thought, the Author offers no apology for the original and startling theories advanced in the pages of this volume. Unlike the speculations of others, and notably of Darwin, these honor the Creator, ascribing not only infinite and perfect creative capacity and power, but purpose, and duration in the creature. Partisan autonomy destines to annihilation all life inferior to man's; making his, of all terrestrial souls, the sole denizen of the heavens. The theory of this work vindicates the honor of the Infinite, by demonstrating purpose, harmony, perfectibility, and indestructibility in all his works; so that, after life here of the greatest generical development in finite intelligences, they may enter upon immortality, and with man make the eternal spheres vocal in praises to the Everlasting Father"--Preface.
