Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Beginnings or Glimpses of Vanished Civilizations
Year after year shows more and more the phenomenal rapidity by which every branch of science moves on; new discoveries in all departments of applied science especially attract distinguished students, and the earth's hidden forces are but now on the threshold of discovery.
Great scientists, however, who have from the earliest ages presumed God's works toscan in relation to the age of the earth and man's first appearance on it, in opposition to the teaching of the Book of Genesis, are no nearer to the realization of their problems than they ever were.
