A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

He had intellect to comprehend his highest duty distinctly, and force of character to do it; which of us dare ask for a higher summary of his life than that? These words were written by Huxley to his friend Hooker on the death of Professor Henslow; and they are even more appropriate when they are applied to the life and work of Huxley himself. When we read his life in the Autobiography or the more lengthy memoirs by Sir Michael Foster and P. Chalmers Mitchell, we are impressed by the manifoldness of his activity. Scientist, citizen, educator, lecturer, writer, he was all these; and upon all the work he did he impressed the peculiar stamp of his individuality. It is perhaps after all Huxley, the man, who is most interesting.
