Evolution Social and Organic

"Evolution Social and Organic" by Arthur M. Lewis is a collection of lectures transformed into a scientific publication from the early 1900s that examines how evolutionary ideas relate to understanding society. The book looks at both natural and social evolution, offering analysis and blending different evolutionary theories to better grasp how human society grows based on scientific principles. To begin, Lewis explains why he gave the lectures, stressing the importance of science in education today and responding to some socialists who disagreed with bringing scientific ideas into socialist thinking. Referencing thinkers from ancient Greece to Darwin and Lamarck, sets up a wide-ranging study of how evolution's philosophical consequences shape social organizations and beliefs. This book urges it's audience to consider the exciting relationships between evolutionary science and social, political issues, bringing readers to think about the wider importance of these related ideas.
