Reader's note

If you love reading philosophy books and you haven't read this one, you really should. This book is a free, fearless and invigorating expression of a biologist's philosophy. Sir Charles Sherrington contrasts a modern biologist's attitude towards the origins of life with that essentially held by a physician philosopher of the sixteenth century. He shows that there is no longer any logical division of matter into living and non-living and that 'growth' is likely to be expressible in terms identical with those used in atomic physics: chemical action upon which growth depends, being but a name for a complex of inter-atomic electrical changes. This really is a great title and is a wonderful addition to any Pelican collection.
