Excerpt from Elements of Biology, With Special Reference to Their Role in the Lives of AnimalsIT IS the conviction of the writer that the specific objectives of a gen eral course in Biology for students in colleges of Liberal Arts are three: To impart such principles and concepts as will enable the student to appreciate the unity In Nature and the place of living organisms, including Man, in that unity, to instill an understanding of the major laws that govern living organisms and a recognition of the operation of these laws in determining broad social and eco~ nomic controls in human society, to impart useful information and information of such character that a habit of observing caution in the face of all forms of scientific and intellectual quackery will be developed. A fourth objective that is self-evident and which General Biology holds in common with many other academic disciplines is the development of student power of clear and logical reasoning based upon accurate observation and established facts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
