From the Unconscious to the Conscious

Abstract

THERE is a well-known fact of biology called the histolysis of the insect, which was first investigated by Weissmann in 1864. When the insect has completed its larval stage and enters into the pupal stage, its tissues disappear, leaving none of their former cellular elements; all are converted into an apparently homogeneous mass, out of which the imago is generated de novo.

From the Unconscious to the Conscious.

By Gustave Geley. Translated by Stanley de Brath. Pp. xxviii + 328. (London: William Collins, Sons, and Co., Ltd., 1920.) 17s. 6d. net.
