Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What Young People Should Know, the Reproductive Function in Man and the Lower Animals
The rapid progress Of microscopic anatomy renders it impossible that any work should fully represent the state Of knowledge at the date Of its publication, but it is hoped that what is here given may serve as a guide to more advanced studies.
In Appendix B is introduced an important lecture by Professor Claude Bernard, which was received too late for incorporation with the text.
The text and illustrations are largely derived from standard works. References are made upon a plan explained upon page 189.
Since writers upon sexual physiology are liable to be placed in an undesirable literary category, a nearly complete list of papers hitherto published by the author is given in Appendix C.
It is proper to state that this is, in no sense, a medical work, and that the author does not now prae tice medicine or surgery in any form.
