Summary "Life: Its True Genesis" by R. W. Wright is a scientific treatise written during the late 19th century. The work seeks to explore the fundamental principles of life through a lens that intertwines scientific inquiry with biblical interpretation, arguing against prevailing materialistic theories of existence, particularly those related to Darwinism and evolution. At its core, the book posits that every form of life has its origins embedded within the earth, manifesting under favorable conditions without the necessity of external seeds or influences, except for human life, which is uniquely created by divine command. The opening of the text establishes Wright's intent to address the growing materialistic ideologies of his time, which he believes exclude the spiritual dimensions of life. He uses scriptural references, particularly from the Book of Genesis, to argue that life arises from primordial germs present in the earth, emphasizing that various forms of vegetation precede animal life in the order of creation. Wright offers a critique of scientific materialism through an exploration of nature's processes, asserting that the evidence of life’s manifestations supports his argument for a divine order that is constant and universal, counteracting theories which he views as speculative and devoid of true understanding of life's origins.
