Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biology and Industry During the war we got such a response. Putting the job through for the sake of the country and the world was the deep purpose in all our thought. The perpetuation and strengthening of this same spirit and its introduction into all the life of the people is the real goal. To be sought in all social life and especially in the organization and conduct of industry. Anything short of this does not solve our problem. In testing the soundness of any industrial idea, such as efficiency engineering, for example, we should not stop merely with the question Will it result in a larger product of manufactured goods, but we should be sure that the plan adopted is so chosen and so handled as to promote a well rounded life and an inner satisfaction in the work er. Efficiency must be measured by its product in human lives, not by its product in manufactured goods. We have had the habit of stopping with the manufactured goods, with the wealth produced, and assuming that the production of wealth is, as a matter of course, productive of human welfare. The plain fact of the case is that the possession of wealth does not tend at all to produce happiness, soul satisfaction, in the possessor. We have just had a most gigantic illustration of this fact. During the last few years laborers have had higher wages and more wealth than ever before dreamed of. Laborers have bought pianos and silk under wear and purchased homes and begun sending their children to col lege, but perhaps there has never been a time when laborers were more discontented. N o, the possession of money does n't bring, does n't tend to bring, contentment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foundations of Biology The present volume is published in response to a demand for a special adaptation Of the author's Foundations of Biology, Fourth Edition, designed especially for use in courses in animal biology and general zoology in which plants are considered only inci dentally in their relations with animals. The essential plan as well as much of the material is, with purpose, the same in both books since the author is apparently far from alone in the convio tion that the general biological viewpoint affords the natural ap proach to an introductory survey of either animal or plant science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biology and Medicine But while conceding to the fullest extent the practical bene fits which attend the separate cultivation of different depart mentsof biology, I would even more strongly emphasize the essential unity of the biological sciences. In essence these sciences constitute but one science, and the great service of the word biology in its present use is to embody this concep tion. The fundamental problems everywhere in biology are the same, the determination of the structure and the proper ties and. The laws controlling them of living matter. In what ever department knowledge be gained as to these fundamental questions, it is a contribution to all departments of biology. The expansion of our knowledge brings closer together all physical and natural sciences, physics with chemistry, and both with biology. It is of incalculable advantage that the surfaces of contact between the different branches of biological study should be kept clearly in view, and that knowledge gained by one should be made readily available for others. Hence it seems to me that the general plan of organization of these laboratories, providing as they do for Special develop ment in all proper directions of biological study, while retain ing the conception of biology as one science, is eminently wise.

Download or read book Lectures on Biology Classic Reprint written by Curt Thesing and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Biology This book consists of Lectures which were given by me during the winter terms of 1905 to 1907 at the Humboldt Academy and the Urania in Berlin. My object in delivering them was to show that it is no longer possible, having regard to the advances of modern research, to find complete satisfaction in being an out-and-out believer in the Darwinian or Lamarckian or any other theory. Each of these doctrines has rendered important service in promoting our knowledge, but the marks of their limitations have of recent years become increasingly distinct. The factors which the different doctrines assume to be at work in the genesis and evolution of the organic world are, however, not exclusive, for the Theory of Selection, the Doctrine of Adaptation and of Use and Non-use, and finally de Vries' Theory of Mutations, offer each for a certain section of organic evolution a sufficient and satisfactory explanation. That, on the other hand, a vast field of vital processes remains still hidden and unexplained only dogmatic prejudice will venture to deny. If I have succeeded in conveying to a wider circle this conception of conflicting theories, and if I have further succeeded in showing that incomprehensible does not mean impossible to comprehend, my object in publishing these Lectures in book form has been attained.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biology in Human Affairs The subject matter falls naturally into three parts. The first part is general in character. It contains reflections upon the philosophy of biology and upon the validity Of its conclusions. Here the authors have also tried to show how the field Of biology is ever broadening through the inclusion of problems which were formerly thought to be beyond the reach Of scientific procedure. The second part is concerned with the mind. It contains a skeletonized account of the general development of psychology, and essays on the application Of psychological methods to education and to industry. The third part treats of the body. It is designed to Show, in some measure, the progress in dealing with man as an animal. It portrays some of the advances in genetics, in medicine, in the work Of the public health Officer, in physiology, in biochemistry, and in general zoology put to the service. In addition, there is an extended discussion Of the means by which man increases his food supply and thus makes it possible to feed some twenty million additional people with the advent Of each new season.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mechanistic Conception of Life: Biological Essays The essays contained in this volume were written on differ ent occasions mostly in response to requests for a popular presentation of the results of the author's investigations. The title of the volume characterizes their general tendency as an attempt to analyze life from a purely physico-chemical view point. Since they deal to a large extent with the personal work of the author, repetition was unavoidable, but in View of the technical difficulties presented by some of the topics this may serve to facilitate the understanding of the subject.
