Excerpt from Man, and the Conditions That Surround Him: His Progress and Decline, Past and Present
This work commenced during the leisure hours of a country life, is now, after an interval of many years, and with many misgivings offered to the reading world. In it the writer has aimed at presenting, in a popular form, some of the current questions, theories, and solu tions that have reference to man's past and present con ditions and has endeavored to explain from certain points of view, some of the principles and conditions that influence human existence; aware, that from other points of view, infinite in number, new principles and conditions still present themselves with an illimitable expansiveness that places the scheme of human exist ence in its totality, immeasurably beyond the reach to human penetration, of more than a dim and fractional view.
