Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Matter There is, fortunately, no need for me to introduce Dr. Gustave Le Bon to the British public, inas much as his works on psychology have a European reputation, and his Psychology of Crowds (long since translated into English) has become, in some sort, a classic. About ten years ago, however, he began to turn his attention to physical science, with the result that he entered upon the long course Of experimental research which is summarized in the following pages. This led him to the conclusion - to put the affair in its Simplest form - that all matter is radio-active in the same manner as uranium, radium, and the other so-called radio-active metals, and that this radio activity is but a step in the process by which it gradually sinks back into the ether from which it was originally formed. TO this he has lately added the corollary that, in the course Of this disintegration, energies Of an intensity transcending anything Of the kind previously Observed are very slowly and gradually liberated.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Creation, or the Power Behind Evolution: Disclosing the Unity of Matter and Force In followmg the guidance of these first things in matter and power the writer may seem to have trenched upon holy ground, and some devout minds may think him un devout, but he has learned to regard all things holy where Nature gives the imprint of her ﬂying feet and her sensi tive touch. 'he sees no occasion to fear rebuke for pressing thought into the presence of Him whose only perfect rev elation of Himself can be made through His works, and if human thought is an image in the likeness of Divinity, the highest evidence of Sonship can be gained only by thus entering into fellowship with the Great Father. Sackcloth and ashes may be put on as symbols of worship, but a smiling face and a cheerful confidence in the dailv provi dence of material forces are far more becoming the wor shiper and a better evidence of fellowship between the human and divine than any form of sacrifice, or any sym bols of humility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Composition of Matter and the Evolution of Mind: Immortality a Scientific Certainty This little book is not a philosophical speculation, nor is it a theory. It is a brief statement of fundamental facts corroborated by every development of Science. It presents the structural unity of the Design and the relations and inter-relations of the Infinite diversity of its manifestations in their common relationship to and dependence upon the Central Power, the Source; especially its aim is to make plain the cause of evolutionary transformations that culminated in the mind of man, which was, and is, capable of aspiration for renewal, "dominion," and, individually of progress and immortality. Sir James Crichton Browne, the English specialist, has said of physicians: "Whatever theoretical tenets they may embrace, whatever physiological system they may adopt, they will, when they find themselves medical practitioners at the bedside, become ardent vitalists." Vitalists are those who see in life more than can be accounted for on any known physical basis. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Creation of Matter: Or Material Elements, Evolution, and Creation, Thomson Lectureship Trust The greatest questions which man can ask and attempt to answer belong to the sphere of origins. We live in the midst of perpetual motion and change, and see all things flowing around us without ceasing. Are they as a river proceeding from a source and running towards a goal? Are they as a sea swaying to and fro, for ever to and fro; or as a whirlpool circling round and round, without beginning or end 1 Have they existed from eternity as they are now; or have they assumed their present form by chance aggregation, combination, and development; or have they been built up out of eternal matter by an eternal mind arranging, uniting, constructing; or is matter itself the work of mind 1 Natural theology, arguing from design, has hitherto only set itself to prove that the great kosmos in the midst of which we find ourselves has not existed from eternity as it now is, has not been formed by chance, but has been arranged and built up by a mind of immeasurable power. We propose to address ourselves to the last question, and to show that matter is the creation of mind; that in its primal elements, however far back we may have to go to find them, there are so many signs of mind as to render it evident that they are the product of an understanding that is infinite, of a hand that is omnipotent.

Harris Lectures of this year. The fact that they were actual lec tures accounts for the form in which the text is given; and the further fact that the audi ence for whom they were prepared was com posed, for a large part, of people unfamiliar with both the facts and the methods of science must be accepted as the justification for the treatment of the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution and Involution 1. Here is a pebble on the shore of the ocean. Let us like it up as a representative of inorganic matter. It is an existence by itself in the universe. What does it know of the universe? It knows nothing, so far as we know. What does it know of (concerning or about) itself? We know that it does not know anything of itself. According to the understanding and knowing of men, it is an existence by itself in the universe, and it knows nothing either of itself or of the universe. And the reason why it knows nothing of the universe is because it knows nothing of itself 2. There is a flower by the wayside. It is a higher existence in the universe than the pebble. According to the classification of naturalists, it belongs to a different kingdom of existence. It belongs to the vegetable kingdom; and the pebble belongs to the inorganised kingdom of nature. It has besides a sort of animation or life, called vegetable life. What does it know of the universe? Nothing. What does it know of itself?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Concept of Matter The notion of a matter that underlies can reasonably be said to be the Oldest conceptual tool in the Western speculative tradition. Scarcely a single major philosopher in the short but incredibly fertile period that separates Thales from Whitehead has omitted it from the handful of basic ideas with which he set out to make Nature more intelligible to man. In many in stances, ancrent and modern, an initial judgement about the role to be attrib uted to matter has been decisive in orienting a philosophic system as a whole. SO that to trace the story of the concept of matter is almost to trace the story of philosophy itself. In addition, this concept played a central part in the complex story of the dissociation Of what we today call natural science from its parent, natural philosophy. The new physics (like the old) was concerned with motion, but its practitioners were less interested in defini tions Of motion than in the charting Of the motions of different bodies and their reduction to a few abstract quantitative formulae Of great predictive power. The Optimistic belief that such a reduction could be brought about depended on the existence of an intrinsic motion - factor peculiar to each body, one that could somehow be operationally defined just as volume and velocity could. In the long Search for this factor - a search which, as we Shall see, is not yet at an end - one Older concept played an indispensable role. Mass (as the motion - factor came to be called) was first grasped as the quantity Of matter. The subsequent history Of this definition and Of the gradual sunder ing Of the concepts Of matter and mass is enormously significant because of the light it can throw'on the relationship between philosophic and scientific concepts generally.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Forces: With Frontispiece and 24 Figures IN the following pages, Dr. Gustave Le Bon develops further the strikingly novel and original theories put forward by him in l'ecolution de la Mattere.1 As in the last-named work, he enunciated the doctrine, which he was the first to deduce, that all matter is continually in a state of dissociation and decay, so in this he goes in detail into the corollary, there only brieﬂy stated, that the atom is a great reservoir of energy, and itself the source of most of the forces of the universe. In support of this position, he calls in the aid of his earlier researches into the nature of invisible radiations, phosphorescence, and the Hertzian waves, all which, with several related phenomena, he declares to be explicable by the hypothesis that the atom, on dissociating, sets free, either wholly or in part the energy stored up within it on its formation. Yet he is careful to declare that this is rather suggested than demonstrated by his researches. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
