Delving into the core principles of vitalism and morphogenesis, Driesch challenges conventional scientific theories of his time, raising fundamental questions about the nature of life itself. This book is a cornerstone of philosophical biology, examining the intricate relationship between scientific observation and philosophical interpretation.

Explore the historical development of biological thought and Driesch's profound arguments regarding the organization and development of living things. "The Science and Philosophy of the Organism" remains a vital text for anyone interested in the history of science, the philosophy of biology, and the enduring quest to understand the nature of life.
