DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Evolution and Man's Place in Nature In this volume, I have undertaken discussion of the problem concerning Man's Place in Nature. The discussion proceeds from the standpoint of Evolution of Organic Life, as maintained by Mr. Darwin, and by Mr. Alfred Russel Wallace. The main objects are to trace the evidence of man's relation to the continuity of life on the earth, and to describe the distinctive characteristics of human life itself. Not without misgivings and apprehensions, have I undertaken this difficult task. Not without diffidence, do I now submit the outcome to criticism. I fully recognise the demand which science makes on the teachers of philosophy, and I here humbly offer a contribution towards its satisfaction. Whatever of failure may appear in this attempt, I may have succeeded in so far opening the way through the entanglements encompassing our higher biological problems.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Testimony of the Teeth Man's Place in Nature: With Other Essays on the Doctrine of Evolution Some apology may be due to the public by the author for presenting them with what may seem an inconsequential series of essays. He hopes, how ever, that he may have some readers to whom they will not appear so disjointed as their titles suggest. Being much interested in Natural History, Meta physics, and Theology, he has from time to time worked up questions which presented themselves, and delivered most of these essays as lectures or papers at the Plymouth Literary and Scientific Institution, or the Odontological Society of Great Britain, by whose kind permission they are now reprinted. Some have appeared in the Zoologis't and other periodicals. The first chapter, the ninth, the eleventh, and the twelfth, have never been previously published, and all the chapters have been rewritten and corrected up to date.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Man's Place in Nature: And Other Anthropological Essays I AM very well aware that the old are prone to regard their early performances with much more interest than their contemporaries of a younger generation are likely to take in them; moreover, I freely admit that my younger contemporaries might employ their time better than in perusing the three essays, written thirty-two years ago, which occupy the first place in this volume. This confession is the more needful, inasmuch as all the premisses of the argument set forth in Man's Place in Nature and most of the conclusions deduced from them, are now to be met with among other well-established and, indeed, elementary truths, in the text-books.
