Herbert Spencer


 

Herbert Spencer (27 April 1820 - 8 December 1903) was an English philosopher. In his political writings, such as The Man Versus the State, Spencer proposed a radical classical liberal philosophy. It was Spencer, and not Darwin who coined the phrase "survival of the fittest", as well helping to popularise the term "evolution." Spencer is acknowledged as one of the founders of the science of sociology.
