Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Survey of National Trends in Biology
Due to a number of discussions with the late Professor Wm. A. Locy, America's foremost historian of biology, the writer had begun a survey of contemporary biological literature some years back. It was but natural, therefore, when two invitations were extended at almost the same moment, (1) by the editors of a new encyclopedia for an article on Modern Progress in Biology, and (2) by the University of Cordoba to deliver a series of international lectures at a number of South American universities, that the material already collected should be extended and woven into a connected whole.
