Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Organismal Theory of Consciousness This book is a reprint, with a few verbal changes necessitated by its mechanical isolation, of the last chapter (twenty-four), the preface, and the postscript of my larger work, The Unity of the Organism, or The Organismal Conception of Life. The title of the chapter is, Sketch of an Organismal Theory of Consciousness and I wish to emphasize the avowedly brief treatment of the subject as indicated by the term "sketch." My reason for publishing this much of The Unity as a separate book is strategical. I hope the move will contribute to the winning of earlier and wider attention to the full treatise by two groups of students especially: Philosophers who have broken away from subjectivist idealism; and physiologists who have deeply sensed the meaning of physical chemistry in its application to living beings. To win more readers for the full work is my hope. And should the thing happen which I realize is possible, to wit, the usurpation by this chapter, which is primarily hypothetical, of the place rightfully belonging to the entire book, which as a whole is quite the reverse of hypothetical, I should be chagrined indeed. But I am counting on an influence even stronger than the sense of fairness and consistency of students as a guarantee against such an outcome. It seems to me western civilization is entering on an era in which integrative conceptions and forces are going to determine the feelings, the thoughts and the acts of men much more than they have for the past three-quarters of a century. Already tendencies of this can hardly be mistaken in industry, in labor, in sociology and in government. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Organismal Theory of Consciousness With the distinction here made once fully grasped comes the revelation that man is an Object of zoological research and treatment no less certainly than is a horse, a fish, a lobster, or an amoeba. But since man's highest, that is his psychical or spiritual attributes are the ones most decisive of his kind, it is these attributes which make him particularly interesting, zoologically speaking - just as, for example, it is the attributes of a horse as a horse, and not as an animal generally that elicits our particular interest in the horse. Zoology rightly understood is preeminent among all the sciences as the science of particulars. This important truth seems to have been first appreciated by Aristotle; and the fact that oneof the most fundamental differences between him and his teacher, Plato, concerned the doctrine of Par ticulars as opposed to that of Universals, is probably con nected closely with Aristotle's great interest in and attention to zoology. I have not seen any reference to this surmise by writers on Aristotle and his philosophy, yet it appears to me highly significant.

Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book of 2012 Rachel Carson loved the ocean and wrote three books about its mysteries. But it was with her fourth book, Silent Spring, that this unassuming biologist transformed our relationship with the natural world. Silent Spring was a chilling indictment of DDT and other pesticides that until then had been hailed as safe and wondrously effective. It was Carson who sifted through all the evidence, documenting with alarming clarity the collateral damage to fish, birds, and other wildlife; revealing the effects of these new chemicals to be lasting, widespread, and lethal. Silent Spring shocked the public and forced the government to take action, despite a withering attack on Carson from the chemicals industry. It awakened the world to the heedless contamination of the environment and eventually led to the establishment of the EPA and to the banning of DDT. By drawing frightening parallels between dangerous chemicals and the then-pervasive fallout from nuclear testing, Carson opened a fault line between the gentle ideal of conservation and the more urgent new concept of environmentalism. Elegantly written and meticulously researched, On a Farther Shore reveals a shy yet passionate woman more at home in the natural world than in the literary one that embraced her. William Souder also writes sensitively of Carson's romantic friendship with Dorothy Freeman, and of Carson's death from cancer in 1964. This extraordinary new biography captures the essence of one of the great reformers of the twentieth century.
