Man, Whence and Whither? (1884)

""Man, Whence And Whither?"" is a philosophical and scientific exploration of the origin and destiny of humanity, written by Richard Brodhead Westbrook and published in 1884. The book delves into topics such as evolution, the nature of consciousness, and the relationship between science and religion. Westbrook draws on a variety of sources, including the Bible, ancient mythology, and contemporary scientific research, to present his ideas on the fundamental questions of human existence. He argues that humanity is the product of a long process of evolution, but that there is also a spiritual dimension to human life that cannot be explained by science alone. The book is a fascinating look at the intersection of science and philosophy in the late 19th century, and remains a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the nature of human beings and their place in the universe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
