Chapters II to IV summarize most of the fundamental facts and principles of modern biology. Chapters V to VII describe briefly the behavior of the lower animals. Chapters VIII to X give some of the most important facts and principles of neurology. Chapters XI to XVI cover the whole field of psychology in a concise fashion and, in fact, form in themselves a small treatise on psychology. Chapters XVII to XX state the most important facts with regard to the beginnings of social evolution and the fundamental forces in social evolution. This book is the first of a series of works in which I propose to deal with the evolution of human culture and of human nature on the basis furnished by this book"--Preface.
