Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Influence of Monarchs: Steps in a New Science of History
That the genealogical method should furnish the clew to the successful interpretation of history is not at all surprising, since the genealogical interpretation is the only correct interpretation for natural history; ale. All classifications of animals and plants are based upon descent. In the metagenesis of human affairs, neither heredity nor personality are everything, but they go so far towards being everything that they may well be made the first forces to be measured; and, as the extent of these ceaseless and omnipresent forces is appreciated, the presence of contrary forces can also be ascertained.
