The Philosophy Of Biology (1914)

The Philosophy of Biology is a book written by James Johnstone and first published in 1914. It is a comprehensive exploration of the philosophical foundations of biology, covering topics such as the nature of life, the relationship between biology and other sciences, the role of teleology in biology, and the implications of evolutionary theory for our understanding of the natural world. Johnstone draws on the work of prominent biologists and philosophers of his time, including Charles Darwin, Ernst Haeckel, and Herbert Spencer, to develop his arguments and provide a nuanced and insightful analysis of the philosophical issues at the heart of biology. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of science, and remains an important contribution to the field of biology to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
