The Evolution And Function Of Living Purposive Matter (1910) - Nottidge Charles MacNamara - Bog

The Evolution And Function Of Living Purposive Matter is a book written by Nottidge Charles MacNamara in 1910. The book is a study of the evolution and function of living organisms, exploring the idea that living matter has a purpose and that this purpose is integral to its existence. MacNamara argues that living matter is not simply a collection of chemical reactions, but a complex system that has evolved over time to serve a specific purpose.The book covers a wide range of topics, including the origins of life, the role of natural selection in evolution, and the relationship between living organisms and their environment. MacNamara also discusses the concept of purpose in living matter and how it has evolved over time, from simple survival instincts to more complex behaviors such as social organization and communication.Throughout the book, MacNamara draws on examples from the natural world to illustrate his arguments, including the behavior of ants, bees, and other social insects. He also discusses the role of humans in shaping the evolution of living matter, both through intentional breeding and through unintentional environmental changes.Overall, The Evolution And Function Of Living Purposive Matter is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of life and its purpose, written at a time when the study of biology and evolution was still in its early stages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
