Excerpt from The Mammalia in Their Relation to Primeval Times In the Preface to the Third Edition of my 'Doctrine of Descent and Darwinism' which appeared in 1883, 1 quoted the opinion of a famous lawyer as to the worthlessness of science, not with the intention of refuting it, but gave it as an example of the incredible naïveté with which eminent representatives of certain pronounced religious tendencies confront the work and results of natural science. Not long afterwards I was asked by a well-known man whether my lectures on zoology, at the university, treated of Darwinism as well. What my answer was is known to all those who have taken any interest in the 'theory of descent.' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
