Excerpt from Herbert Spencer and Animal Evolution: The Herbert Spencer Lecture Delivered at the Museum on the 2nd December 1990

Thus, in his First Principles, he begins With a considera tion of chemical and physical laws, and after treating of the interaction of these laws in the production of inorganic phenomena, he proceeds to apply the same principles] to. The solution of the problems offered by organic phenomena. I may give one quotation to illustrate his point of view.
