Scientific Sophisms: A Review Of Current Theories Concerning Atoms, Apes, And Men is a book written by Samuel Wainwright and published in 1881. The book provides a critical analysis of the prevailing scientific theories of the time regarding the nature of atoms, the evolution of apes and the origin of human beings. Wainwright challenges the prevailing scientific views of his time, arguing that many of the theories were flawed and based on unproven assumptions. He argues that the current theories concerning atoms were insufficient and that there was a need for a more detailed understanding of the fundamental nature of matter. In addition, Wainwright critiques the then-popular theory of evolution, arguing that the evidence was inconclusive and that it was premature to draw definitive conclusions about the evolution of apes and the origin of humans. He also critiques the notion of natural selection, arguing that it was an oversimplified explanation for the complexity of life on earth.Overall, Scientific Sophisms is a thought-provoking book that challenges many of the prevailing scientific theories of its time. It provides a fascinating insight into the scientific debates and controversies of the late 19th century and is still relevant today as a reminder of the need for critical thinking and rigorous scientific inquiry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
