Abstract
MR. L. DONCASTER has recently given one explanation of the strange neglect of NÃgeli to appreciate the results of Mendel. Perhaps the following footnote from Eimer's “Organic Evolution” (tr. J. T. Cunningham, 1890), p. 53, may supply another:—“Nägeli in the introduction to his book speaks very severely of those who without any justification undertake to express opinions upon the origin and evolution of organisms. He claims this right exclusively for physiologists, and counts among the non-physiologists both Darwin and Haeckel. Against such a close corporation I protest.”
