Synopsis
Excerpt from The Evolution of Knowledge
The following essay is intended to call attention to an aspect of knowledge which has been very generally overlooked. Its importance was not evident until the theory of evolution came into prominence and, although that theory has now been expounded in regard to a great variety of subjects, I have not yet found any statement of its application to epistemology.
