Unconscious Memory
ISBN: 9781540377098 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book essentially restated the argument of Life and Habit, stating that human variation, or 'progress', is due to 'strokes of cunning - to a sense of need, and to study of the past and present which have given shrewd people a key with which to unlock the chambers of the future'. Butler believed that heredity was a mode of memory, and instinct was inherited memory. A world shaped by natural selection appeared to Butler to be 'a world of chance and blindness', which he simply could not accept, and he seized on what he saw as the wilful aspect of the Lamarckian mechanism of evolution to...

The Way of All Flesh
ISBN: 9781512288025 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Samuel Butleter began to write "The Way of All Flesh" about the year 1872, and was engaged upon it intermittently until 1884. It is therefore, to a great extent, contemporaneous with "Life and Habit," and may be taken as a practical illustration of the theory of heredity embodied in that book. He did not work at it after 1884, but for various reasons he postponed its publication. He was occupied in other ways, and he professed himself dissatisfied with it as a whole, and always intended to rewrite or at any rate to revise it. His death in 1902 prevented him from doing this, and on his...
