Abstract
THE first volume of the long-expected work by the master has appeared. By placing the study of anatomy upon the basis of evolution he had become the founder of modern comparative anatomy, and he has raised the building to a great extent by his own hands, supported by a school of disciples, ever increasing through his stimulating and correcting influence.
