Note 664 — PART III THE THEORY OF PLAY

Baldwin calls this directing influence of organic selection orthoplasy; he attempts to replace Eimer’s “orthogenesis” by means of a principle which does not involve the inheritance of acquired characters. [A recent exposition of organic selection is by Conn (Method of Evolution, 1900). See also Baldwin’s Dict. of Philos. and Psychol., sub verbo.—Tr.]
