Structure of Animal Life - Six Lectures Delivered at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in January and February, 1862

This book contains six classic articles on the subject of structure in animal life, being a selection of essays exploring the relationship between natural history and the idea of God. Although old and largely scientifically out-dated, the information contained within these essays will be of considerable utility to those with an interest in the development of scientific thought, especially in relation to religion. Contents include: &quote;Four Different Plans of Structure Among Animals&quote;, &quote;Religion and Natural History&quote;, &quote;Remote Antiquity of Animal Life as Shown in he Coral Reefs&quote;, &quote;Physical History of the Earth.--Man the Ultimate Object&quote;, &quote;Triple Coincidence in the Succession, Graduation, and Growth of Animals&quote;, and &quote;Evidence of an Intelligent and Constantly Creative Mind in the Plans and Variations of Structure&quote;. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with its original artwork and text. First published in 1882.
