Darwinism To-Day a Discussion of Present-Day Scientific Criticism, of the Darwinian Selection Theories, Together Gether With a Brief Account of the ... Theories of Species-Forming (Classic Reprint)

It is, then, as a means of orientation in evolutionary matters for the general reader and for the unspecialised but interested student of science that this book is prepared. That it may not be without some special usefulness to more advanced students and biological workers there are added, in appendices to the chapters, special notes (referred to in the text by small super-numbers) in which are given numerous exact references to general or special books or papers, and accounts, in more or less detail, of particular observations, experiments, or theoretical discussions, as well as references to extended bibliographic lists of the subjects under treatment. These notes will enable students, or others interested, to look up the original sources of our knowledge of the subjects of the various chapters, and to find more detailed general or special discussions of them than can be given in this book. These notes also enable the author to introduce into the book some details of his own observations and experiments touching various evolutionary subjects. V. L. K. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, June,
