Excerpt from Science and Morals: And Other Essays
Now, at this point it may be said that there are at least two things which we should like to know about heredity - the vehicle and the laws. It is clear that we might know something, perhaps even a good deal, about one of these without knowing anything about the other.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the interaction between science and morality. It delves into scientific concepts of the time period through the lens of the author, a distinguished scientist and President of the British Association. Contrasting Darwin's emphasis on scientific philosophy with subsequent theories of heredity, the author posits that while science can provide us with many answers, it is not equipped to answer all of life's great questions. Can science, the author asks, truly explain the origin of morality or the human condition? Through thought-provoking philosophical debate, the author argues that science has its limits and that human conduct is not subject to its laws alone.
