Excerpt from Organ and Function: A Study of Evolution
A preface is customary, usually unnecessary and always an annoyance. In conclusion, then, let me say, if I were to express my admiration for those naturalists whose views I have ven tured to criticise I must write another chapter, and if I acknowledged my indebtedness to them I should be bankrupt of thanks.

Excerpt from Organ and Function: A Study of Evolution
Definition is important and needs illustration. Automatic evolution is the production of form and order in nature by the action of force upon inert matter. One virtue this definition of the subject has in common with all others is that it has no content. Apparently we have the sides of a box without top or bot tom. What is matter? and what is nature? Also there is mental action without ascertained conditions. It is the train not the land scape which rushes along at sixty miles an hour.
Automatic evolution is the hope of research. One grand dynamic movement throughout the one visible universe and one principle for the understanding, involving as well the action of the mind, prepossesses the imagination. Re search is bound to find the immediate, material cause of each event. Each unexplained item is set aside in the hope that further inquiry may solve the remaining difficulty. The practice of setting aside becomes a habit.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of organic form and function through a critical analysis of the Darwinian theory of natural selection. The author argues that the theory of natural selection, while useful as a means of explaining certain evolutionary adaptations, fails to account for the development and persistence of useless or non-adaptive characteristics in living organisms. The book delves into the complexities of organ and function relationships, the role of beauty and design in nature, and the challenges of explaining the origins of complex biological systems. The author presents a thought-provoking critique of Darwinian evolution, offering alternative explanations for the development of life's incredible variety and complexity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330294628_0
