Sinopsis
Excerpt from Man in the Light of Evolution
Meanwhile many have discussed the evolution of family, society, morals, and religion who have not fully recognized the complexity of the prob lem. Some have looked at man entirely in the light of lower animals, almost as if he were a mere clam or worm, and have formed theories of human evolution adequate only to these lower forms. We have had many gladiatorial theo ries in spite of Professor Huxley's warning. Others, recognizing more clearly man's unique position, have practically discarded all laws of evolution applicable to lower forms. Some such writers have almost neglected the power of natu ral selection.

Excerpt from Man in the Light of Evolution
Almost fifty years ago Mr. Darwin published the "Origin of Species." His "Descent of Man" followed some years later. A host of books have since been written on evolution, Darwinism, and natural selection. But comparatively few zoölogists have attempted to show the bearing of the theory of evolution on man's history, progress, and life. They have generally left this problem to the sociologist and archæologist.
This need not surprise us. All problems of life are exceedingly complex. Nature is, or seems, very illogical. Why, then, attack the problem in its most difficult form in the highest and most complex living being until we have gained an approximate solution of the questions involved in the life of the lower and simpler? The zoologist wisely hesitates before the difficulties of the attempt.
