500 $a"This book is a reaction. It is the reaction of a man who has endured a lifetime of being shouted-at by Darwinism and its adherents. It is thus the outspoken reaction of an old man who has had to endure a lifetime of persecution, both direct and indirect, in his chosen field. This persecution has been manifested in ad hominem attacks, bad science, thinly masked anti-Christian ideology, non-existent philosophical accountability and atrocious historiographical method -- in a word 'Evolutionism'. Further, to add pecuniary injury to intellectual insult, he has even been subjected to the deliberate piracy of his work by an United States Government Department of State -- none other than the militantly evolutionistic Smithsonian Institution (see Introduction, pages 548-560 for full account). This volume represents his 32nd work dedicated to the Lepidoptera."--Pt. 3, pref. and acknowledgement.
