'Its perusal [WW's Philosophy of the Inductive Sciences, Founded upon their History?] gives me to understand better what you mean by the Idea of Organization, though I confess I still do not quite like the phrase, as standing in close column with the Ideas of Space, Time and Resemblance, - the instant and inevitable product of sensation - but probably there are reasons for it given in the first volume, which have not at first occurred to me. You will understand that it is chiefly the word organization which I object to in this use, as most apparently expressing the most radical form of the idea, which I presume you to have in view'.
