Many of these essays are combative in the sense that they are occasioned by criticism, and amount to defenses. This is fine. Spencer wrote many treatises. Surely he had excuse to defend his writings, especially when his thought was as complex as it was, and many people tended to read and then immediately simplify, misconstruing what he wrote, and either adopting that position (horrors! an acolyte) or rejecting it (horrors! a critic). Even these essays that are more correctives to common misconceptions and misreadings than original contributions are worth reading . . . though perhaps after one has read the works to which they refer.
