Abstract
THE author of the present work is one of those biological theorists who, while accepting the doctrine of evolution, and apparently admitting that natural phenomena must be capable of rational explanation, yet think it necessary to adopt a severely critical attitude towards the only principle which seems able to account for the facts of organic development, the principle, namely, of selection, as first propounded and illustrated by Darwin and Wallace.
