One or two of them were also delivered at Northwestern University, Mt. Holyoke College, Western University, and the University of Texas.

I shall attempt to present certain conclusions of science regarding the evolution of man, and shall venture to draw from these conclusions certain inferences with regard to the future of the human race, but I have no desire to force others to accept these conclusions or inferences. The spirit of science is freedom to seek and to find truth, freedom to hold and to teach any view for which there is rational evidence, recognition that natural knowledge is incomplete and subject to revision, and that there is no legitimate compulsion in science except the compulsion of evidence.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
