19103 vols., 8vo., Mixed Editions, with 3 portrait frontispieces (two with original tissue guards present), a coloured plate, a full-page facsimile and very numerous wood-engraved illustrations (many full-page) in the text; original blue cloth, gilt backs, gilt tops, boards of second volume lightly spotted at fore-edge else a near fine set. With 16pp publisher's catalogue bound in at end of second and third volumes. The set comprises Vol. I: The Darwinian Theory (fourth edition, 1910); Vol. II: Post-Darwinian Questions: Heredity and Utility (third edition, 1906); Vol. III: Post-Darwinian Questions: Isolation and Physiological Selection. Arguably the author's most important work, the three volumes were first published in 1892, 1895 and 1897 respectively. The youngest of Darwin's academic colleagues, Romanes met Darwin at Cambridge after which thy remained friends for life. A staunch supporter of his mentor, he coined the term 'neo-Darwinism' and promoted the topic of evolution frequently from his position at University College London. In later years he founded the Romanes Lectures (still extant) and was pleased to note that Huxley consented to deliver the second series. A lovely set in publisher's original and uniform binding. Very scarce in anything like this condition.

A Classic Of Semi-Science First Published In Italy In 1906 This Being The First Edition In English. Per Wikipedia: Eugenio Vittorio Rignano 1870 In Livorno - 1930 Was A Jewish Italian Philosopher. He Was Born In Livorno To Giacomo Rignano And Fortunata Tedesco Into A Jewish Family. Rignano Edited The Journal Rivista Di Scienza Later Known As Scientia It. His Book The Psychology Of Reasoning 1923 Influenced The Social Anthropologist Edward Evans-Pritchard. His Book Man Not A Machine 1926 Was Replied To By Joseph Needham's Man A Machine 1927. Rignano Took Interest In Biology And Wrote A Book That Argued For The Inheritance Of Acquired Characteristics. He Advanced A Moderated Lamarckian Hypothesis Of Inheritance Known As "Centro-Epigenesis". His Views Were Controversial And Not Accepted By Most In The Scientific Community. His Book The Nature Of Life 1930 Was Described In A Review As Presenting A "Militant At Times Almost An Evangelical Exposition And Defense Of An Energetic Vitalism." However Historian Peter J. Bowler Has Written That Rignano Rejected Both Materialism And Vitalism And Adopted A Similar Position To What Was Known As Emergent Evolution. Li Dazhao One Of The Founders Of The China Communist Party Was An Avid Reader Of Rignano's Works And Chinese Communist Emphasis On Absolute Control Of All Conduct May Be Influenced By The Belief That It Will Result In Changed Behavior Forever In Future Generations Their Stated Goal. . Rignano's Views On Acquired Characteristics And Organic Memory Are Discussed In Detail By Historian Laura Otis And Psychologist Daniel Schacter. The Finding That The Immune System Does Indeed Acquire Inheritable Characteristics Puts Much Of The Lamarckian Debate Into A New And Politically Distressing Light.
