The Principles of Biology, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint) by Herbert Spencer Pdf
Excerpt from The Principles of Biology, Vol. 2 Tax proof sheets of this volume, like those of the last volume, have been looked through by Dr. Hooker and Prof. Huxley; and I have, as before, to thank them for their valuable criticisms, and for the trouble they have taken in checking the numerous statements of fact on which the argu ments proceed. The consciousness that their many duties render time extremely precious to them, makes me feel ho w heavy is my obligation. Part IV., with which this volume commences, contains numerous figures. Nearly one half of them are repetitions, mostly altered in scale and simplified in execution, of figures.
