TL;DRAbstract

Natural selection…replaces a transcendental explanation with a natural one. To be sure, it does not explain force, and thus leaves the whole subject shrouded in as deep fundamental mysticism as ever. But science does not hope to explain force and power, and will be satisfied to account for natural phenomena by…natural forces acting in accordance with natural laws. Natural selection was a great step in this direction.H. W. Conn
