A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

He was engaged more or less conm Jtinuously throughout his life in carrying out systematic observations and experiments on the habits and intelligence of animals, and in the pursuit of this hobby collected a large number of careful notes which it was always his intention to publish. He died, however, without bringing this side of his life to fruition, and it has not yet been possible to publish his records and notes on this subject. From time to time, however, throughout his life he wrote essays and articles of general interest on subjects of natural history. In the present volume a selection of these has been brought together for the first time. The first two in the book the latest written have not before been published. The remainder appeared in the authors lifetime, over a period of some twenty years, in periodical literature. We are able to reproduce them now by the courtesy of the journals in which they appeared. Owing to the manner in which these essays were in the first place written they contain a certain amount of repetition which, though to a certain extent unavoidable, has been as far as possible reduced in editing the present selection.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Benjamin Kidd (1858-1916), well-known for his ground-breaking application of social Darwinism in his premier work Social Evolution (1894), was a sociologist and a keen observer of nature. First published posthumously in 1921, A Philosopher with Nature is a collection of Kidd’s most profound writings concerning natural habitats. Although the book is not to be considered scientific, Kidd’s method of uniting biology and sociology sheds remarkable insights into the animal kingdom. This title is suitable for both students of Anthropology and Sociology.
