Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Sir Julian Huxley

"Teilhard de Chardin and Julian Huxley, two prominent intellectual figures of the twentieth century, were scientists -- Huxley, a zoologist and science writer working in Europe and North America, and Teilhard, a geologist and hominid paleontologist working mainly in Asia and Africa. Both scientists also made pioneering attempts to reconcile the theory of evolution with humanity's cultural and spiritual needs -- Teilhard from a Christian and theological perspective and Huxley from a secular and humanistic perspective."--Page 1
