Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book includes papers produced by the Zoological Club, a group of naturalists active in the early 19th century. The Zoological Club's mission was to support the work of naturalists and to share current research amongst their community. Noting many species were yet to be described and named, members took a special interest in promoting the documentation of botanical and zoological species and phenomena. By publishing the work of various naturalists, the Zoological Club provided a collection of resources for readers interested in the range of zoological study. To improve knowledge of local animal species, the author promotes detailed observation, noting that even observations seemingly insignificant can be highly valuable. Noting the tendency for naturalists to rely on individual perspectives and methodologies, the author emphasizes the importance of broad interdisciplinary collaboration. Readers can expect a varied collection of descriptive, speculative, and analytical papers on zoological topics, representing the early 19th-century state of the discipline. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of instinct and the mental distinction between humans and animals, introducing a series of essays that explain the various faculties and actions of animals that have been considered to result from moral feeling and intellect. The author argues that animals do not possess rational consciousness and that any moral or intellectual qualities they exhibit are not their own but rather the result of being guided by superior powers or agencies that operate upon and dispose them to certain ends. This theory challenges the prevailing view of the time that animals possessed innate moral and intellectual faculties, and provides a foundation for investigating the true nature of instinct.
