The Chances of Death and Other Studies in Evolution, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)

The Chances of Death and Other Studies in Evolution, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Chances of Death and Other Studies in Evolution, Vol. 1 of 2

To some readers a few words of explanation on the apparent want of unity in the contents of this book may seem desirable. In the first place, the author believes this heterogeneity will be found more in the titles of the several essays than in their contents. There must always be a unity, interesting at least to the psychologist, if not to the general reader, when a mind with its opinions and methods of investigation reason ably matured approaches even very diverse problems. But the author would be unwilling to admit that this is the sole unity of his essays. He believes that the sympathetic reader will find in one and all the essays he fundamental note of the author's thought, namely he endeavour to see all phenomena, physical and social.
