The Advancement of Science

Abstract

UNDER this title, Prof. Ray Lankester has republished a number of essays, which have appeared at intervals during the last eighteen years. All of them are of more or less permanent interest, and we are glad to have them presented to us in the convenient form of a well-printed octavo volume. While some of the essays are somewhat too technical for the general reader, the majority are of great and very general interest, well worthy of being read and thought over by all.

The Advancement of Science: Occasional Essays and Addresses.
