Wikipedia description:

Essays and Reviews, published by John William Parker in March 1860, is a broad-church volume of seven essays on Christianity. The topics covered the biblical research of the German critics, the evidence for Christianity, religious thought in England, and the cosmology of Genesis. Despite lacking originality, the book was popular due to its high-profile authors, and "caused a furore among English Christians by its readiness to adopt (in a very moderate way) the methods of biblical criticism". The book is not to be confused with other books titled Essays and Reviews, which is a generic title that has been used for many other books, none of which have been as notable as this one.
