Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Essays on Evolution 1889-1907
It will, I think, be realized that, although the separate essays were delivered as addresses or published on various occasions and at very different dates, they are the expres sion of a continuous line of thought, and therefore fall together as naturally as if they had been written at one time, for the purposes of the present volume.
A certain amount of overlap is necessary in essays dealing with closely related subjects. Any inconvenience from this cause and the scattered use of examples, in evitable in an essay, will be removed by consulting the Appendix and the analytical index, to the preparation of which much time and labour have been devoted.
