From the author's PREFACE. The following chapters were originally written in 1908-9, in amplification of a sketch of ethical theory contained in my Morals in Evolution, which had been published three years earlier. I was not, however, satisfied with the result, and put the manuscript aside for several years. It has now been almost entirely re-written.
