Book Description

Excerpt from Lectures on Physiology, Zoology, and the Natural History of Man: Delivered at the Royal College of Surgeons I willingly concede to every man what I claim for myself, the freest range of thought and expression; and am perfectly indifferent whether the sentiments of others on speculative sub jeeta coincide with or differ from my own. Instead of wishing or expecting that uniformity of opinion should be established, 1 arn convinced that it is neither practicable nor desirable that varieties of thought are as numerous, and as strongly marked, and as irreducible to one standard, as those of bodily form and that to quarrel with one, who thinks differently from ourselves, would be no less unreasonable than to be angry with him for having features unlike our own.
