WCP780

From:
Alfred Russel Wallace
To:
J. H. Thornton
Date:
5 October 1902
Source of text:
Natural History Museum, London: NHM Catkey-418284
Summary:

Thanks for letter and pamphlet on vivisection; explains that this was not covered in ARW's Wonderful Century because vivisection "is not specially connected with the 19th-Century". Proposes to call the enlarged edition "The century of new ideas in science and the arts …"; Phrenology and Hypnotism were [practically, ins] discoveries of the 19th Century; vivisection is "wholly bad" but in a different category of "evils" as does not take away personal freedom.
