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 is a critical review of the prevailing scientific theories of the time, particularly those related to atoms, apes, and humans. Wainwright argues that many of these theories are based on flawed assumptions and logical fallacies, which he refers to as ""scientific sophisms.""The book is divided into three sections, each of which focuses on a different topic. The first section examines the theories of atomic structure and the nature of matter, including the popular theory of the time that atoms were indivisible and unchangeable. Wainwright argues that this theory is based on flawed logic and that atoms are in fact divisible and subject to change.The second section of the book deals with the theories of evolution and the relationship between apes and humans. Wainwright criticizes the prevailing theory of evolution as being based on a flawed understanding of genetics and argues that the similarities between apes and humans are not evidence of a common ancestry.The final section of the book focuses on the nature of human consciousness and the soul. Wainwright argues that the prevailing scientific theories of the time fail to account for the existence of the soul and the spiritual nature of human beings.Overall, Scientific Sophisms is a critical review of the prevailing scientific theories of the late 19th century. Wainwright's arguments are based on a combination of scientific evidence and philosophical reasoning, and the book provides a fascinating insight into the intellectual debates of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
