 THE DEVELOPMENT OF HERBERT SPENCER'S CONCEPT OF EVOLUTION
Spencer's first serious intellectual endeavours were devoted to the study of phrenology, and it was from phrenology that he drew the conception of society as an organism in which interdependent, specialized structures serve diverse functions.
That is, Spencer's psychology extends the theory of association from the tabula rasa of the individual to that of the race.
Spencer's conception of the mind as an adaptive function was also a crucial influence on the development of the pragmatic philosophy and functional psychology of William James and John Dewey.

Spencer tries to wake us up to the reality of the threat that he perceives by examining in detail how today's doctrine of violence against unbelievers—mainly Jews and Christians-- derives from unaltered and largely unrepudiated beliefs rooted firmly in the Qur'an and the Hadith.
It is erroneous, Spencer remarks, "to equate the stipulations of Islamic law with modern-day notions of freedom of thought and tolerance." (139) Elsewhere, he attacks the "modern myth of Islamic tolerance." (185-212) He trains particularly heavy guns on those who evoke pre-1492 Muslim Spain as a shining example of Muslim openness.
Spencer becomes highly critical of liberal Protestants and of academics in the US who support the view that jihad is primarily an “inner struggle” for personal virtue and submission to God.
