Abstract
AS the moment is favourable, may it be suggested that the branch of science the rapid growth of which forms the occasion of Prof. Lotsy's book should now receive a distinctive name? Studies in “Experimental Evolution”or in the “Theory of Descent,” strike a wrong note; for, theory apart, the physiology of heredity and variation is a definite branch of science, and if we knew nothing of evolution that science would still exist. To avoid further periphrasis, then, let us say genetics.
