McCabe Joseph Boeken
Joseph McCabe transformeerde van een toegewijde geestelijke tot een leidende voorstander van intellectuele emancipatie, waarbij hij zijn leven wijdde aan het bevorderen van rationeel denken en een seculiere wereldvisie, gegrondvest op wetenschappelijk inzicht. Hij was bijzonder geïnteresseerd in de evolutietheorie, en zijn vertaling van een baanbrekend werk had een aanzienlijke impact op zijn wereldwijde literaire status. McCabe's uitgebreide lezingentours en productieve schrijfwerk bereikten miljoenen mensen over de hele wereld, wat zijn invloed verstevigde. Zijn gepassioneerde verdediging van de evolutietheorie en zijn kritische beschouwing van religieuze instellingen maakten hem tot een belangrijke stem in het intellectuele discours van zijn tijd.
