If an author may pre sume to advise his readers, I would suggest that, after finishing the first essay, they should (if they retain a stomach for more) proceed at once to the last. This done, they will find the others all in a sense lesser variations (if I may change my meta phor) upon the same themes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Probable Infinity of Nature and Life: Three Essays It is almost as much on account of the super-history furnished by these essays as on account of what is said in them that I am now publishing them. They were not written with any definite purpose Of publication. The ones on spontaneous generation and multiple causes were prepared as addresses for scientific societies. That on the infinity Of nature was written mainly to enable me to see where my biological development was tending as touching other domains Of knowledge. TO state more specifically why I now publish the essays essentially as they were written, I find on approaching the completion Of the Unity of the Orgamm, that I need the essays in print, partly as record and partly as super-record. What I am writing now in the larger work, I want to attach directly to what I wrote earlier about the origin of life and to do so without rewrit ing the Old essay and incorporating it as a section in the later book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mechanistic Conception of Life: Biological Essays The essays contained in this volume were written on differ ent occasions mostly in response to requests for a popular presentation of the results of the author's investigations. The title of the volume characterizes their general tendency as an attempt to analyze life from a purely physico-chemical view point. Since they deal to a large extent with the personal work of the author, repetition was unavoidable, but in View of the technical difficulties presented by some of the topics this may serve to facilitate the understanding of the subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Perspectives on the History of Life: Essays on Systematic Biology as Historical Narrative (San Francisco, 21-23 June, 1994) So we have very good reason to take the narrative aspect of evolutionary biology very seriously, to assess its possible strengths and limitations, and to see what might be done with it in future research. But as Landau (1991) points out, in a very interesting study on the history of narratives of human evolution, scientists themselves have said very little about the narrative aspects of their own research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Science and Christian Tradition: Essays So wrote one of the protagonists of the New Reformation - and a well-abused man if ever there was one - a score of years since, in the re markable book in which he discusses the negative and the positive results of the rigorous application of scientific method to the investigation of the higher problems of human life. Recent experience leads me to imagine that there may be a good many countrymen of my own, even at this time, to whom it may be profit able to read, mark and inwardly digest, the weighty words of the author of that Leben J esu, which, half a century ago, stirred the religious world so seriously that it has never settled down again quite on the old foundations; indeed, some think it never wiil. I have a personal interest in the carrying out of the recommendation I venture to make. It may enable many worthy persons, in whose estimation I should really be glad to stand higher than I do, to become aware of the possibility that my motives in writing the essays, contained in this and the preceding volume, were not exactly those that they ascribe to me.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cultures and Institutions of Natural History: Essays in the History and Philosophy of Science This volume consists mainly of papers delivered at two meetings cosponsored by the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale in Milan and the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco. The first, on the Culture of Natural History, was held in Milan, November l4-l 6, I996. The second, on Institutions of Natural History, was held in San Francisco, October 5 - 7, 1998. They followed two earlier conferences on Biology as History (pinna and Ghiselin I996; Ghiselin and Pinna I996) likewise held in Milan and San Francisco. We intend to continue the series of meetings and have publications based on them in commemoration of the Academy's sesquicentennial in 2003. The emphasis here is mainly upon natural history museums and the kind of science that goes on in them. Although the essays were originally written to stand by themselves, when arranged in chronological order they suggest a common theme. To paraphrase Darwin, the culture and institutions of natural history have been, and are being, evolved. They have adapted to local circumstances, diversified, and sometimes even progressed. We may hope that the future holds more than just retrogression and extinction in store. Read as case studies the essays provide valuable insights into not just how, but why, the institutions have come into being and subsequently been transformed. Previous generations had quite different ideas than we do about how a collection of naturalia is supposed to function and how it should be organized. And there were con icting goals and serious disputes about policy, much as there are today. Often, though not always, the institutions turn out to be very different from what had been envisioned by their founders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leisure-Time Studies, Chiefly Biological: A Series of Essays and Lectures The present volume has at least one merit: it is strictly what its title-page announces it to be - a volume of essays and addresses, written and delivered for the most part in the leisure-time of a busy professional life. To collections of articles written at various times, and it may be under varying moods and phases of thought, there is usually brought the objection that the interest of the papers is of passing kind, whilst their relationship to each other may be by no means stated or clear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Life and Sense The essays included in this volume have appeared from time to time in various magazines. I may discover justification, if such be needed, for their publication in their present form, in the fact that this method of rendering permanent views and opinions which would otherwise vanish away with magazine back stock, finds favour in the eyes of many readers, and has besides become a common prac tice of our day. The sole aim of the Essays now collected will be fulfilled if they succeed in explaining, to those willing to know, some of the great facts and laws which underlie the every-day life both of man and his lower neighbours - animals and plants alike. There are many less effective things, in the way of modern culture, than a popular training in biology. To aid such culture in its own small measure is the chief object of the present volume.
