I’m indebted for this to Brian Switek at Laelaps, who did all the work and posted it almost a week ago. One week ago was the anniversary of T.H. Huxley’s birth. These days, his name is associated with the epithet, “Darwin’s Bulldog,” and the task of defending the new theory of evolution. But he was much more than that, a scientist and thinker in his own right.
Read about Huxley’s life.
