Abstract
IN this book Prof. Lubosch attempts to deal with the facts of anatomy in such a way as to bring them into the widest possible correlation with learning in general. Or perhaps it would be more correct to describe his essay as the creation of a system of philosophy based upon speculations concerning the structure and developmental history of the human body. To many biologists such a mode of approach to the study of living creatures may seem far too transcendental to be of serious value; but the philosophically-minded student may discover a new interest in the dry bones of anatomy by indulging in such day-dreaming as Prof. Lubosch's fantasies provoke.
