Lubbock was the Principal of the London Working Men's College, President of the London Chamber of Commerce, and the Chairman of the London City Council. He wrote extensively on a variety of scientific, historical, and sociological s ubjects. This was an influential contribution to understanding the techniques and scholarly disciplines involved in studying: the primitive condition of ancient man; the origins of civilization; geol o gy and zoology as it relates to archaeology and sociology; Darwinian theories of natural selection among men; the influences of racial and tribal differences; and the utility of modern aboriginal ev id ence. "The man of science ought to go on honestly, patiently, diffidently, observing and storing up his observations, and carrying his reasonings unflinchingly to their legitimate conclusions, convinc ed that it would be treason. to swerve ever so little from the straight rule of truth" -- After Dr. Tait's 'Lecture on Science and Revelation' (1864). **PRICE JUST REDUCED!

Layard, Austen Henry.

Original full publisher's brown cloth, boards decorated in blind with designs of flowers and publisher's device. Extremities worn and slightly chipped. Remains of library numbers on spine. Hardbound. Sir Austen Henry Layard (1817-1894) was one of the leading British archaeologists of the nineteenth century. He was not a professional archeologist, and he wore many hats in his public career - diplomat, politician, art connoisseur, and a man of letters. He entered the London legal profession in 1836 under the sponsorship of his wealthy uncle, Benjamin Austen. He remained there until 1839 when he set off, with his traveling companion Edward Mitford, on his first expedition to Nineveh and the region of Mesopotamia at Mosul. Over the next decade the British Museum unloaded hundreds of tons of sculpture and artifacts from Layard's excavations. His books won acclaim for their mix of high adventure and archeology embroiled in an intoxicating stew of compelling characters and sudden crises. He made the Assyrians accessible to common people and brought alive a shadowy Biblical civilization. HOLY LAND BOX 1
