Path Of Evolution Through Ancient Thought And Modern Science PDF Download

Excerpt from The Path of Evolution Through Ancient Thought and Modern Science The sketch here given of the evolution of knowledge and the doctrine of the evolution of life is the effort to place in a connected historical relation the questions discussed and partly answered in my home. To those who are versed in the several sciences touched upon the treatment thereof may seem to be too superficial, dealing mainly with the beginnings of principles and teachings that even a child might know. But it is the beginnings of things that are often least well known. The questions that a child might ask the wisest man can scarcely answer. On the other hand, the problems of the Ether and of Gravitation are yet unsolved, and by many men are thought to be insolvable.
