Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Growth in Length: Embryological Essays
Although my husband had destined this work for publication, he had not actually prepared it for the press; but the Lectures were typewritten and some corrections and notes had been added to them. For help in arranging them for print I am greatly indebted to Professor Stanley Gardiner, and to Professor J. P. Hill, who have most kindly read the mss; and to the latter especially for valuable suggestions as to some altera tions in the original wording, which while adapted for lecturing purposes might not always have been clear to the reader.
The figures have been drawn by Miss D. Thursby-pelham from the sketches given in the mss referring to lantern slides and diagrams displayed during the lectures.
The cost of publication is partly defrayed by a grant from the Royal Society.
