    About this ebook

    "Critiques and Addresses" by Thomas Henry Huxley takes aim at various educational, scientific, and philosophical subjects as these were Huxley's specialties. From discussing nihilism with the administrative system of academia, and how medicine is taught to the formation of coal and the coral reefs, this book doesn't limit itself to one field and touches on a number of interconnecting topics that all affect how people interact with the scientific world.
