Rezensionen
<p>"One general law, leading to the advancement of all organic beings, namely, multiply, vary, let the strongest live and the weakest die." - <b><i>Charles Darwin</i></b></p> <p>"But with regard to the material world, we can at least go so far as this - we can perceive that events are brought about not by insulated interpositions of Divine power, exerted in each particular case, but by the establishment of general laws."
