Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Theory of Life Deduced From the Evolution Philosophy
Beneath the abstractions and generalizations of every system of philosophy, worthy of the name, there lies con cealed what may be termed a theory or interpretation of life, using the word life in its deepest and widest possible signification. True of philosophical systems in general, this is preeminently so of the Evolution Philosophy. Nay, more assuming the real worth of any system of philosophy to be properly determinable by the rationality, the logical consistency, and the practical value of its theory of life, we can hardly question the superiority of the Evolution Philosophy over the metaphysical systems which it is destined to supplant. It is no part of our present purpose to advance arguments in support of these propositions except in so far as the exposition presently to be laid before the reader may be considered in this light.
