The author’s writings on the philosophical implications of evolution, praised by Charles Darwin himself, were also influenced by Herbert Spencer. This 1897 collection, which the London Academy said “may be not unfairly designated the most important contribution yet made by America to philosophical literature,” includes fifteen brilliant essays.
