Review
"A masterful tour-de-force."
—The Review of Metaphysics
"Dr. Errol E. Harris's range of knowledge is as astounding as it is welcome; I cannot think of another writer who has amassed such a sheer quantity of scientific facts and shown such a masterly power of insight and criticism . ... He has written a work of which philosophers should take careful account if they wish to keep their thought in tune with that of working scientists."
