Synopsis
Originally published in 1911, Henri Bergson's treatise on evolution challenges and elaborates on the philosophy of the time, particular the theoretical models of Aristotle and the natural selection model of Darwin. Concerning himself with issues like the relation between plants and animals and the "thought" behind biological change, Bergson sees the various forms of animals as being one organism that does not have to choose which new direction to go in, it simply splits and goes both ways. The evolution of man is marked by his ability to think without acting, while in nature thinking and acting are one and the same. For readers enthralled with the 21st-century exploration of East/West molecular-thought science, discovering that Bergson was on the beam way back in the day will be a real eye-opener. Written in a discursive style that borders on the poetic, Bergson's book blends philosophy and biological speculation in a most captivating manner.
