Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Man in the Light of Evolution
Meanwhile many have discussed the evolution of family, society, morals, and religion who have not fully recognized the complexity of the prob lem. Some have looked at man entirely in the light of lower animals, almost as if he were a mere clam or worm, and have formed theories of human evolution adequate only to these lower forms. We have had many gladiatorial theo ries in spite of Professor Huxley's warning. Others, recognizing more clearly man's unique position, have practically discarded all laws of evolution applicable to lower forms. Some such writers have almost neglected the power of natu ral selection.
