Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

German zoologist Albrecht Carl Ludwig Gotthilf Gnther (1830 -1914) began his association with the British Museum, London, in 1857 when he was charged with completing the museum's catalogues of amphibia, reptiles, and fish. In 1875 he became director of the zoology department of the Natural History Museum. "Reptiles of British India" is one of his main works.

The nature of life is at the center of national debate. Are we mere material mechanisms? Or is life a vast nonphysical dimension that organizes matter? Does God exist? The issue is not academic. The question defines the nature of human reality. What are the limits of consciousness? Do our memories exist in our brains or in the vastness of time? "The Vital Dimension" examines the thoughts of eminent scientists such as the Nobel Prize Winners Erwin Schrodinger, Werner Heisenberg and Sir John Eccles who concluded that life is a mysterious force unknown to modern science. "The Vital Dimension" embraces Rene Descartes' admonition, "Doubt all that can be doubted " to look beyond the rigid preconceptions of mechanistic biology and construct a truly radical theory of life. More than mere speculation, the weight of scientific evidence points to the fact that the modern, material view of reality is on the verge of a profound revolution. The world stands at the threshold to the Vital Dimension. Dare we open the door?
