Description
Excerpt from War and the Breed the Relation of War to the Downfall of Nations
The term Organic Evolution applies to the orderly changes which are now taking place, or which have in the past taken place in living forms, from generation to generation. In this movement the natural history Of humanity, its divergence into species, races and strains, forms ari integral part. For man is part and parcel of nature, governed by the same laws of birth, growth and development as the higher animals, laws shared in their degree by our other brother organisms, the plants, as well. Life in its endless movement we may perhaps liken to a great river, ?owing continuously, dividing at times into smaller streams, purifying itself as it flows along and dropping to the bottom its silt and mud.
