_From the London Saturday Review._
“In this excellent translation of Professor Haeckel’s work, the English
reader has access to the latest doctrines of the Continental school of
evolution, in its application to the history or man. It is in Germany,
beyond any other European country, that the impulse given by Darwin
twenty years ago to the theory of evolution has influenced the whole
tenor of philosophical opinion. There may be, and are, differences in
the degree to which the doctrine may be held capable of extension into
the domain of mind and morals; but there is no denying, in scientific
circles at least, that as regards the physical history of organic nature
much has been done toward making good a continuous scheme of being.”
