To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
All the recent theories of development or evolution which have made so much noise in the world, whether in the hands of Lamarck, or of Darwin, or of Weissman, are simply endeavours to guess what the steps have been, and how the direction of them has been determined. As regards the general fact that they have been somehow directed under the operation of some law, it matters nothing how far those guesses have been imperfect or erroneous. That they have been both, in a high degree, seems quite cer...tain. But except in so far as they are aimed at the substitution of fortuity for purposiveness, they may be treated as of no significance in our present inquiry. It matters nothing, as regards the pur- posiveness of results, whether the steps to attainment can be followed more or less imperfectly, or not at all. There is, however, an important distinction to be observed between the relation of each organ to its own special work in the plan of every individual creature, and the corresponding relation of new species to any special work in the general plan of all organic life.
