Excerpt from Westminster LecturesThat there are two views respecting the nature of every living organism, human, animal, or vegetable, is, I suppose I may take it, familiar to all persons who have bestowed even a very cursory glance upon bio logical controversies. According to the one party, the living organism is a mere machine, and its Operations are the sum of the processes, chemical and physical, which take place in its interior. According to the other party, there is a something over - a something which controls and directs the Operations of the organism, a something differing in char acter from the known chemical and physical forces, which can be investigated in the laboratory.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
