Abstract
WITH the gradual rise of the experimental school in biology, and with the increasing demand for scientific method in veterinary and medical practice, the existence of a definite gap in scientific literature came to be recognised. Nowhere was the subject of the physiology of reproduction dealt with at all adequately; in the ordinary text-book of physiology it was dismissed after a very superficial treatment. Moreover, there was not a physiologist competent to write upon this subject at all authoritatively. Biologists, pure and applied, owe a great debt of gratitude to Dr. Marshall for having chosen this field in which to work; for, thanks to his labours, the difficulties of a great band of research workers have been made much less complex.
The Physiology of Reproduction.
