Divine Selection or The Survival of the Useful

In 'Divine Selection or The Survival of the Useful', George Henry Dole explores the concept of Divine Providence and its role in the natural selection of species. Drawing on a combination of scientific observations and religious teachings, Dole presents a compelling argument for the idea that God's design is manifested through the survival of the most 'useful' organisms. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to readers interested in both theology and evolutionary biology. Dole's work is situated within the context of 19th-century debates on evolution and religion, offering a unique perspective that bridges the gap between these seemingly conflicting worldviews. George Henry Dole, a theologian and naturalist, was inspired to write this book by his deep appreciation for the wonders of the natural world and his belief in the harmony between science and faith. His interdisciplinary approach sheds new light on the age-old question of how God's providence operates in the world of living beings. 'Divine Selection' is recommended for readers seeking a thoughtful exploration of the relationship between theology, science, and the mysteries of creation.
