Excerpt from Habit and Intelligence: A Series of Essays on the Laws of Life and Mind

Ou the other hand, chapters have been inserted on the Facts of Variation, on the Effect of Change of Conditions, and on Mimicry, Colour, and Sexual Selection. These are mostly abstracted from the enormous mass of detail noted in Darwin's works and I hope that they may be not only serviceable in illustrating the reasonings of this work, but useful in themselves as constituting an accurate 'and readable summary of interesting and important facts. The following chapters are also altogether new, and are the most original in the work.
