    Extractions: Irrationally held truths may be more harmful than reasoned errors. Every great advance in natural knowledge has involved the absolute rejection of authority. The great tragedy of science is the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact. "No delusion is greater than the notion that method and industry can make up for lack of motherwit, either in science or in practical life."

    Extractions: Biographical Information Occupation, Sphere of Activity Thomas Henry Huxley ( ), popularly known as 'Darwin's Bulldog' because of his defence of the theories of Charles Darwin ( ), was a much more complex person than this simplistic image of an unquestioning defender of Darwinism would suggest. Though his father was a school mathematics teacher and assistant headmaster, Huxley had little formal schooling (by some accounts, no more than two years in all), and he was largely self-taught. His talent for drawing, which was useful to him in later life when describing the animals he investigated, was already clear when he was a child. He had initially hoped to study mechanical engineering, but was pressured by his family into studying medicine. Aged 14, Huxley attended a post-mortem, and seems to have caught a disease or poisoning (the nature of which is not known precisely) that affected his health for the rest of his life, requiring occasional recuperative trips to the countryside. Huxley studied medecine at Charing Cross hospital, and graduated with an MB from the recently founded University of London in

    Extractions: Language of Material : eng On the affinities of the family of the medusa . Huxley returned to Britain in 1850 and that year too he was made a Fellow of the Royal Society. In 1854 he began lecturing in Natural History and Paleontology at the Government School of Mines in Piccadilly, and in 1859 some research of his appeared as The Oceanic Hydrozoa . Meanwhile, from 1856, there began a long association between Huxley and Charles Darwin, the former seeing Darwin's approach as an important support to his own ambition of building a new scientific elite unbound by old constraints. Support of Darwin and his evolutionary naturalism provided him with the nickname 'Darwin's bulldog'. Huxley challenged the notion of supernatural creation and, as an advocate of agnosticism, a term which he coined, he sought no reconciliation between science and theology. In 1861 he observed that human and ape did not significantly differ and in 1863 he published Zoological evidence as to man's place in nature and On the causes of the phenomena of organic nature . In the academic session 1875-1876, he delivered a course of lectures in Zoology at Edinburgh University. Huxley served as President of the Geological Society (1869-71), the Ethnological Society (1868-71), the British Association for the Advancement of Science (1870), the Marine Biological Association (1884-90), and the Royal Society (1883-85). He also sat on several Royal Commissions, including that on the Sea-fisheries of the UK. His other publications include

Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-1895) was an English natural scientists and author who became widely known as "Darwin's Bulldog" because of his fierce and uncompromising defense of Darwin's theory of evolution and natural selection. Huxley's career as a public defender of evolution and antagonist of religion began most fully when he stood in for Darwin at a 1860 meeting in Oxford of the British Association. At this meeting, he debated Bishop Samuel Wilberforce, a cleric who had been attacking evolution and naturalistic explanations of life because they degraded religion and human dignity. Huxley's counterattacks, however, made him very popular and quite famous, leading to many speaking invitations and many published articles and pamphlets. Huxley later invented the term "agnosticism," which was for him was a position which rejected the knowledge claims of both "strong" atheism and traditional theism. More importantly, agnosticism for him was a method of doing things. In 1889 he wrote in "Agnosticism":

Born in Ealing, Middlesex, on May 4, 1825, and educated at Charing Cross Hospital, London, Huxley received his medical degree from the University of London in 1845 and was admitted to the Royal College of Surgeons. The following year he entered the Royal Navy as assistant surgeon aboard HMS Rattlesnake. During his tour of duty in Australasian waters, which lasted until 1850, Huxley became thoroughly familiar with the surface animals of tropical seas. His observations on the medusa family of jellyfish led to the formulation of the zoological class Hydrozoa and to the realization that the two germ layers found in members of this class are comparable to the two germ layers that arise in the early embryological stages of higher animals. Returning to England in 1850, Huxley was made a fellow of the Royal Society. The Royal Navy retained him as a nominal assistant surgeon until 1853; he used this time to write several scientific papers, including an authoritative work on the morphology of cephalopod mollusks. Huxley became professor of natural history and paleontology at the Royal School of Mines, London, in 1854. He accompanied the Irish physicist John Tyndall on an expedition to the Alps, where they studied glaciation.

His partisanship earned him the nickname of "Darwin's Bulldog," although he did not accept the theory uncritically. In addition to his work in biology, he did original research in zoology and paleontology. He is also remembered as the progenitor of a family of highly successful scientists and thinkers.

On May 4, 1825, T. H. Huxley was born at Ealing, the seventh child of George and Rachel Withers Huxley. Perhaps because two brothers-in-law were doctors, Thomas decided to enter the medical profession and in the fashion of the time became an apprentice to a brother-in-law at the age of 15. In 1842 he won a free scholarship to the medical school attached to Chairing Cross Hospital in London and completed the course in 1846.
