Excerpt from The Science and Philosophy of the Organism, Vol. 2: Gifford Lectures Delivered at Aberdeen University, 1908 The second - and final - volume of this work consists of two portions. I first bring to a conclusion the discussion on which I embarked in Volume I., regarding the subject from the point of view of "Science, " and then in the longer and more important portion I proceed to the "Philosophy" of the Organism. The third part of the scientific section, with which this volume opens, is, so to say, an enlarged and improved second edition of my work, Die "Seele" als elementarer Naturfaktor (1903). In the course of the argument it will become apparent why the word Seele was put in inverted commas in the German title. Of the philosophical section only Part I. B 1 and 2 (pp. 162-188) contains matter that I have already published elsewhere - in Part I. of my Naturbegriffe und Natururteile (1904) - and even this part is here presented to the reader in a form very different from what it was. All the rest is new and hitherto unpublished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
