Excerpt from Darwiniana Essays, Vol. 2As I have said in the seventh essay, the fact of evolution is to my mind sufficiently evidenced by palaeontology and I remain of the opinion ex pressed in the second, that until selective breeding is defimtely proved to give rise to varréties infertile with one another, the logical foundation of the theory of natural selectiomis incomplete. We still remain very much in the dark-about the causes of variation, the apparent inheritance of acquii ed characters in some cases, and the struggle for existence within the organism, which probably lies at the bottom of both of these phenomena.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
