My dear Mr Lewes,

I thank you very heartily for your kind present of The Physical Basis of Mind.1 From looking into parts, I am sure that it will interest me greatly, & I hope that there will not be much in it beyond the scope of my understanding

Pray believe me, yours | sincerely obliged | Charles Darwin
