This vintage book contains C. Lloyd Morgan's 1927 treatise, "Emergent Evolution". Emergent evolution is a theory stating that, during evolution, completely novel properties - for example the mind and consciousness - appear due to a random resorting of pre-existing entities. This fascinating volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in psychology and evolutionary theory, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of similar literature. Conwy Lloyd Morgan (1852 - 1936) was a famous English ethologist and psychologist, best remembered for the experimental approach to animal psychology now known as 'Morgan's canon'. Many antiquarian texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
