Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Evolution of Charities and Charitable Institutions
Rational selection at the first, and at its poorest, is only a shade better than instinctive selection. Indeed, in cases of definite blundering it may have worse results than instino tive selection. Indeed, it is hard to tell in any given case how far we should allow our reason to dominate our im pulses. But it is manifest that rational selection, at its best, and in its possibilities, is the superior of the other two forms, and those races will eventually survive which practice it most constantly and most wisely.
