Summary

Chapter eight pays attention to some crucial questions concerning the encounter between biological and theological anthropogenesis, which have inspired very emotional reactions to evolutionary theory and posed a considerable challenge to several fundamental presuppositions of systematic and philosophical theology. A presentation and defense of the contemporary Thomistic approach to the question of the origin of our species is followed by an account of the complexity of the debate concerning the mono- versus polygenetic character of human speciation.
