A compelling work of intellectual and scientific history, Darwin: Before & After presents a thorough examination of Charles Darwin's life, the development of his evolutionary theory, and the profound philosophical and theological consequences that followed its publication. Robert E. D. Clark, writing from a scientifically informed Christian perspective, argues that Darwinism cannot be neatly separated from its broader implications for morality, society, and faith, challenging readers to consider the theory not merely as biology but as a worldview with far-reaching consequences. The narrative chronicles Darwin's personal journey — from his early influences and voyage on the Beagle to the reception of On the Origin of Species — while carefully scrutinizing the evidential and logical foundations of natural selection. Clark's tone is measured yet pointed, blending scientific rigor with theological concern to produce a critique that is both accessible and intellectually serious. This is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the full cultural and philosophical weight of one of history's most consequential scientific ideas.
