I could not info info about the author, but the book was originally published in 1879, so it should be safe.

David Hume 7 May [O.S. 26 April] 1711 – 25 August 1776) was a Scottish philosopher, historian, economist, and essayist known especially for his philosophical empiricism and skepticism.

From Wikipedia:

"Thomas Henry Huxley PC FRS (4 May 1825 – 29 June 1895) was an English biologist (comparative anatomist), known as 'Darwin's Bulldog' for his advocacy of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.

"Huxley's famous 1860 debate with Samuel Wilberforce was a key moment in the wider acceptance of evolution, and in his own career."

The novelist Aldous Huxley was his grandson.
