Abstract
THE sixteen essays which make up the volume are reprints, with a few alterations, of articles originally published in Knowledge. “They are intended,” the author tells us, “to illustrate in a popular manner a few of the various modes in which animals—especially vertebrates—are adapted to similar conditions; and also to demonstrate some of the more remarkable types of structure obtaining among the higher vertebrates.”
