The reader is offered a book by the well-known Soviet biologist and philosopher I.I. Agol (1891-1937), dedicated to the development, from the perspective of dialectical materialism, of certain issues in biology. The author thoroughly analyzes, evaluates, and criticizes both the main problems of the vitalistic theory contemporary to him, as well as the attempts by mechanists (philosophers who equated dialectics with mechanics) to revise dialectical materialism. The book is recommended for philosophers and science methodologists, biologists and historians of biology, as well as all interested readers.
