To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Pell and I part company. I have already(Chapter III) disputed the causal connection between birth-rate anddeath-rate which Mr. Pell here asserts. His generalisation is made byassuming that birth-rates and death-rates rise and fall together: thatconditions which produce a high death-rate will also produce a highbirth-rate and that conditions which cause a low death-rate will also causea low birth-rate; that the increase or decline of a population is due tothe direct action of the environment; an...d finally that "the _actual_ degreeof fertility is decided by the direct action of the environment. " [55] Onthat last rock Mr. Pell's barque sinks. The mistake here is analogous tothe old Darwinian fallacy, abandoned by Huxley and by Romanes, that naturalselection is a creative cause of new species. Even if the hypothesis ofevolution--and it is merely a hypothesis--be accepted, the only viewwarranted by reason is that variation of species and their actual degree offertility may be produced, not by the direct action of environment, but bythe _reaction_ of species to their environment--a very different story.
