The dustjacket which is slightly chipped at their head and tail of the spine and at each of the fold over tips, has been printed on reverse of another dustjacket (obviously a war austerity measure.)The 1st half of the book is mainly devoted to an exposition of the principles of genetics, so far as they apply to men and women. I have tried to make it as popular as possible without sacrificing truth to simplicity. – In the 2nd part I deal with more controversial topics. Many people will disagree with my conclusions.

Is Evolution A Myth : A Debate Between Douglas Dewar, L Merson Davies and Prof J B S Haldane C A Watts & Co Ltd And The Paternoster Press [Published Jointly By], U.K. 1949. First Edition, Softcover. Very Good/Good. 92 pages, size 7 inches tall by 4.75 inches in thick card covers. 'This debate deals' with the riddle of the origin of species, a subject of perennial interest, even before-and after-the publication of Darwin's famous work. Man looks around him at life in all its myriad forms and complexities and asks, " Where did it come from ? What is its purpose and destiny ? " The answers to the riddle have been almost as varied as the questioners, but in general they can be divided into two groups. One group of answers claims that life emerges as the result of natural forces, or biological evolution. The other group maintains the necessity for an act, or acts, of special creation. In this written debate, the origin of which is explained in the Introduction, are brought together authoritative statements of both of view by writers whose names are household words in their own fields of knowledge. To the natural interest of the subject under discussion is added the personal atmosphere of question and answer, thrust and counter-thrust, which hold the attention to the end, where the reader is left to draw his own conclusion.' Book - in Very Good thick card covers. Contents, spotting to the extreme page edges otherwise clean, bright and tightly bound, previous owner's name Jon Miller 1949 [1921-2008] believed to be the naturalist, writer and broadcaster.
