About this book

Delivered at Oxford as the second of the Romanes lectures, Thomas Huxley's Evolution and Ethics leads this collection and is reprinted in the first half of the volume with notes. In his preface Huxley says he had long studied how modern scientific thought bears on morals and politics, and that the Romanes foundation bars the lecturer from treating religion or politics directly. The rest of the volume holds Science and Morals, dated 1886, and Social Diseases and Worse Remedies, with a preface, an introductory essay and a piece on the Salvation Army.
