THE discourse on Evolution and Ethics, reprinted in the first half of the present volume, was delivered before the University of Oxford, as the second of the annual lectures founded by Mr. Romanes: whose name I may not write without deploring the untimely death, in the flower of his age, of a friend endeared to me, as to so many others, by his kindly nature; and justly valued by all his colleagues for his powers of investigation and his zeal for the advancement of knowledge. I well remember, when Mr. Romanes' early work came into my hands, as one of the secretaries of the Royal Society, how much I rejoiced in the accession to the ranks of the little army of workers in science of a recruit so well qualified to take a high place among us. It was at my friend's urgent request that I agreed to undertake the lecture, should I be honoured with an official proposal to give it, though I confess not without misgivings, if only on account of the serious fatigue and hoarseness which public speaking has for some years caused me; while I knew that it would be my fate to follow the most accomplished and facile orator of our time, whose indomitable youth is in no matter more manifest than in his penetrating and musical voice. A certain saying about comparisons intruded itself somewhat importunately.

Lectures On Evolution is a book written by Thomas Henry Huxley, a prominent biologist and advocate for the theory of evolution. In this book, Huxley presents a series of lectures that he delivered in 1863 at the Royal College of Surgeons in London. The lectures cover a range of topics related to evolution, including the evidence for evolution, the mechanisms of natural selection, and the implications of evolutionary theory for human society and morality.Huxley's lectures were groundbreaking in their time, as they presented a scientific explanation for the diversity of life on Earth that challenged traditional religious beliefs. Huxley was a close associate of Charles Darwin, and his lectures helped to popularize the theory of evolution and establish it as a cornerstone of modern biology.Lectures On Evolution is a seminal work in the history of science and an important contribution to the ongoing debate over the relationship between science and religion. The book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of evolutionary theory and the development of modern biology.The French expedition to Egypt had called the attention of learned men to the wonderful store of antiquities in that country, and there had been brought back to France numerous mummified corpses of the animals which the ancient Egyptians revered and preserved, and which, at a reasonable computation, must have lived not less than three or four thousand years before the time at which they were thus brought to light.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Essays Upon Some Controverted Questions is a collection of essays written by Thomas Henry Huxley, a prominent British scientist and philosopher of the 19th century. The book contains a series of essays that explore various controversial topics of the time, including evolution, religion, and education.In the essays, Huxley presents his arguments and opinions on these contentious issues, drawing on his extensive knowledge and expertise in the fields of biology and philosophy. He challenges prevailing beliefs and ideas, and offers new perspectives and insights that continue to be relevant today.The book is divided into four sections, each focusing on a different topic. The first section deals with the subject of evolution, and includes essays such as ""On the Reception of the Origin of Species"" and ""On the Hypothesis of Evolution, Physical and Metaphysical.""The second section examines religion, and features essays such as ""Agnosticism and Christianity"" and ""On the Natural History of the Supernatural."" In these essays, Huxley explores the relationship between science and religion, and argues that they are fundamentally incompatible.The third section of the book is devoted to education, and includes essays such as ""On the Educational Value of the Natural History Sciences"" and ""On the Study of Zoology."" Huxley advocates for a more scientific approach to education, and emphasizes the importance of studying the natural world.The final section of the book contains miscellaneous essays on a variety of topics, including ""On the Physical Basis of Life"" and ""On the Relations of Man to the Lower Animals."" Throughout the book, Huxley's writing is clear, concise, and insightful, making this a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

"But the human bones and cranium from the Neanderthal exceed all the rest in those peculiarities of conformation which lead to the conclusion of their belonging to a barbarous and savage race. Whether the cavern in which they were found, unaccompanied with any trace of human art, were the place of their interment, or whether, like the bones of extinct animals elsewhere, they had been washed into it, they may still be regarded as the most ancient memorial of the early inhabitants of Europe."

I have entitled this volume "Darwiniana" because the pieces republished in it either treat of the ancient doctrine of Evolution, rehabilitated and placed upon a sound scientific foundation, since and in consequence of, the publication of the "Origin of Species;" or they attempt to meet the more weighty of the unsparing criticisms with which that great work was visited for several years after its appearance; or they record the impression left by the personality of Mr. Darwin on one who had the privilege and the happiness of enjoying his friendship for some thirty years; or they endeavour to sum up his work and indicate its enduring influence on the course of scientific thought.

This Is A New Release Of The Original 1908 Edition.

""Science and Education"" is a collection of lectures given by the renowned biologist and educator Thomas Henry Huxley in the late 19th century. In this book, Huxley argues for the importance of science education in modern society and explores the relationship between science and religion. He also discusses the role of universities in promoting scientific inquiry and the need for scientific literacy among the general public. Huxley's insights into the nature of scientific knowledge and the methods of scientific inquiry remain relevant to this day and make ""Science and Education"" a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of science.To this, his highest ideal of duty, Joseph Priestley sacrificed the vulgar prizes of life, which, assuredly, were within easy reach of a man of his singular energy and varied abilities. For this object he put aside, as of secondary importance, those scientific investigations which he loved so well, and in which he showed himself so competent to enlarge the boundaries of natural knowledge and to win fame. In this cause he not only cheerfully suffered obloquy from the bigoted and the unthinking, and came within sight of martyrdom; but bore with that which is much harder to be borne than all these, the unfeigned astonishment and hardly disguised contempt of a brilliant society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
