...as well as in organic life. By " evolution," says Spencer Herbert, " we understand the advance from the simple to the complex, from the homogeneous to the heterogeneous, from indeterminate form to determined arrangement, effected by a gradual multiplication of parts, each of...

...nature of an unfolding. The essential changes of evolution have been comprehensively formulated as from the simple to the complex, from the homogeneous to the heterogeneous, from the general to the special. Is this an a priori speculation, that is, an idea formed before observation...

...a nerve may be produced in an extremely simple primitive organism. And as evolutions always go from the simple to the complex, from the homogeneous to the heterogeneous, from the indefinite and the incoherent to the definite and the coherent, systems more or less complicated...

...pathologists of this view of evolution, more than to state that it is understood to be an advance from the simple to the complex, from the homogeneous to the heterogeneous, from the indeterminate form to the determined arrangement, affected by a gradual multiplication of parts,...

...evolved from the primitive mind of prehistoric man. A continual change has ever been going on from the simple to the complex, from the homogeneous to the heterogeneous, from the imperfect to the more perfect. This continual progress has been in operation during all time, and...
