The Living Substance: As Such, And As Organism is a book written by Gwendolen Foulke Andrews in 1897. The book delves into the concept of life and the nature of living organisms. Andrews explores the idea that all living things are made up of a living substance that is different from non-living matter. She argues that this substance is capable of self-organization and self-regulation, and that it is the basis for all life on Earth.Andrews also discusses the role of this living substance in the development and evolution of organisms. She examines the ways in which living things adapt and change over time, and how they are able to maintain their integrity and identity despite these changes.Throughout the book, Andrews draws on a range of scientific and philosophical sources to support her arguments. She discusses the work of prominent scientists such as Charles Darwin and Ernst Haeckel, as well as the ideas of philosophers such as Immanuel Kant and Arthur Schopenhauer.Overall, The Living Substance: As Such, And As Organism is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of life and the living world. It offers a unique perspective on the subject that is still relevant today, more than a century after it was first published.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
