About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from Development and Evolution: Including Psychophysical Evolution, Evolution by Orthoplasy, and the Theory of Genetic Modes

The relation of this Volume to the two earlier ones is spoken of above. The close connection of the three volumes, all of which might have been made parts of a single larger work, renders necessary the repeated citation of each one of them in the others, in a way which may seem - and has seemed, to one critic - to be a case of a writer's liking 'to quote himself.' It is really, however, a matter of division of material - with separate publication of the parts - and the references are such as one usually finds from chapter to chapter in the course of one work. The interconnection of the topics it is, therefore, with the need of expounding them, for the sake of comprehensive ness, in this interconnection, that gives a somewhat per sonal look to these references.
