Essays on Life, Art and Science (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

Published posthumously in 1904, this collection of essays, taken largely from Butler’s work published in The Universal Review in 1890, covers a wide range of subject matter—reflective of Butler’s diverse interests. Included among the essays are “Ramblings in Cheapside,” “Thought and Language,” and “The Deadlock in Darwinism,” which is a summary of Butler’s views attacking Darwinism.
