Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Monograph of the British Aphides, Vol. 2 A Few remarks by way of preface to this second volume of British Aphides may be permitted. And first the Author thinks some apology is due to the reader for the large space occupied by the coloured plates of this Monograph. It is felt that through their assistance alone adequate ideas can be given of forms which possibly hereafter, through the suppression of parts, or causes (so styled) evolutionary, may be proved to be in a state of transition. Coloured plates also enable us to mark the gradual deposition of pigment within the integuments of the insects at different ages, and to note the development of form at various periods of the cycle of their persistence. It has been said that "you have no right to regard that as a species which you cannot accurately describe in words." If to this maxim we should add the conditions of pictorial delineation of form and colour, the truth perhaps would be more obvious; for all that mere words can do in such a case is to enable us to compare in a positive way what lies before us, and leave negative evidence in great measure disregarded. Word-painting may create grand poetic conceptions, but cannot, we will say, realise the exact features of a fine landscape and all its details.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Monograph of the British Aphides, Vol. 3 The illustrations of this and former volumes require a few words of comment. There are high authorities who may demur to the departure I have made from precedent as to the posing of my figures. It has been said that many fine plates of animals and plants have been rendered useless to science by the artistic rendering of a graceful attitude or an elegant curve - that the figure for science, again, should be representative or, to a certain extent, abstract. Biological illustrations certainly are not meant to please the eye alone. Yet no gain can be had by mere naked unclothed facts in drawing, and if all art is to be eliminated from science many will turn with disgust from that which by a better treatment would please. The natural pose of a bird or reptile can always be connected by an efficient artist with such scientific details as are capable of being rendered in the external form. Where the camera is employed this posing is inseparable from the representation of living insects; and after all, notwithstanding that the views are necessarily perspective, measurements may be made from them as reliably as from ordinary eye drawings.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Monograph of the British Aphides, Vol. 4 On introducing this concluding volume to the reader, I tender my sincere thanks to the Members of the Council of the Ray Society for undertaking the publication of my Monograph, and for the courtesy which they have shown me in fulfilling my wishes as to the form it should assume. Prof. Helmholtz well remarks that "The materials of a monograph must be united by a logical process; and the first step is to connect like with like, and to elaborate a general conception embracing them all." Again, elsewhere, "A digest or catalogue may be likened to a good lexicon; with which almost a tyro of the present day can achieve results in the interpretation of the classics, which an Erasmus, with the erudition of a lifetime, could hardly attain." Some may perchance think that this Monograph has attained proportions unnecessarily large. The general reader, on the one hand, may take exception to its detail. The competent biologist, with more truth perhaps, may complain of omissions as well as commissions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
