Excerpt from Evolution and the War
The way in which the distinction between men and animals is glossed over by the two fashionable schools of modern thought, and the misleading fashion in which observations on inheritance in plants and animals have been extended to human qualities, I have criticized in many occasional articles. The attempt towards a theory of consciousness which I sketch in this book is foreshadowed in my book on The Childhood of Animals, published in and in an address on Science and Life, published early in 1914.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the theory of war by drawing parallels between international relations and the evolution of animals through natural selection. The author traces the evolution of the theory of natural selection from pre-Darwinian ideas to the modern synthesis. They then discuss heated debates and subsequent evidence on the subject of variation, selection and species. In the end, they conclude that natural selection is a compelling theory but still ultimately unproven and subject to change. The author ultimately shares the belief that the insights gained from this theory will continue to shape our understanding of the natural world. This book will appeal to anyone with an interest in the history of science, biology, or the philosophy of science.
