This edition includes essays that discuss contemporary themes of evolution and wealth concentration, providing insights into the scientific and social issues of the time. The pieces, such as Dr. David Starr Jordan's discourse on evolution, delve into scientific definitions while addressing broader philosophical and societal implications. At the start of the publication, the focus is placed on Dr. Jordan's exploration of the concept of evolution. He emphasizes the ambiguity surrounding the term, clarifying its scientific scope and philosophical significance. The discourse discusses various uses of the term "evolution," identifying it as a branch of science, a theory of organic existence, a method of investigation, and a philosophical system. The opening chapters set a tone of inquiry into how society comprehends scientific understanding, linking this exploration to pressing societal issues, such as class disparities and wealth distribution, which are examined in subsequent essays in the volume.
