Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge Natural History, Vol. 10 Inasmuch as Sir W. H. Flower and Mr. Lydekker could not profess to treat the Mammalia exhaustively within the limits of nearly 800 pages, in their Introduction to the Study of Mammals, it is obvious that the present volume, which appears ten years later and is of rather less size, can contain but a selection of the enormous mass of facts at the disposal of the student of this group. Thus the chief question for myself was what to select and what to leave aside. It will be observed that I have reduced the pages of this book to conformity with those of other volumes of the series by treating some groups more briefly than others. It has appeared to me to be desirable to treat fully such groups as the Edentata and the Marsupialia, and permissible to be more brief in dealing with such huge Orders as those of the Rodentia and Chiroptera. Lengthy disquisitions upon such familiar and comparatively uninteresting animals as the Lion and Leopard have been curtailed, and the space thus saved has been devoted to shorter and more numerous accounts of other creatures. As there are nearly six hundred genera of living Mammals known to science, omission as well as compression became an absolute necessity. I have given, I hope, adequate treatment from the standpoint of a necessarily limited treatise to the majority of the more important genera of Mammals both living and extinct; but the length of this part of the book had to be increased by the discoveries, which give me at once an advantage and a disadvantage as compared with the two authors whose names I have quoted, of a considerable number of important new types in the last ten years.

It has been thought better to adopt the Views of recognised leading specialists in the various groups, and thus place before the reader the combined results of recent investigation. This method may, perhaps, occasion a certain number of small discrepancies, but it is believed that the ultimate effect will be to the advantage of the student.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge Natural History, Vol. 9 In this volume of the "Cambridge Natural History" the author has attempted to meet a need which he believes to be somewhat widely felt. Recognising the fact that there is at the present time an abundance of popular, or only slightly scientific, works on Birds, some of which touch but superficially upon the individual species composing the various groups, as regards their plumage or habits, while others pay little or no attention to correctness of Classification, he has essayed the difficult and apparently unattempted task of including in some six hundred pages a short description of the majority of the forms in many of the Families, and of the most typical or important of the innumerable species included in the large Passerine Order. Prefixed to each group is a brief summary of the Structure and Habits; a few further particulars of the same nature being subsequently added where necessary, with a statement of the main Fossil forms as yet recorded. Thus it is hoped that the work may be of real use, not only to the tyro in Ornithology, but also to the traveller or resident in foreign parts interested in the subject, who, without time or opportunity for referring to the works of specialists, may yet need the aid of a concise account of the species likely to cross his path.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural History, Vol. 6: Zoology and Botany The completion of these fifty memoirs, descriptive of the fauna and flora of that part of the Antarctic area which was visited by the Discovery, under the command of Captain Scott, R.N., C.A)., offers a suitable opportunity for saying a few words on the collections that were obtained, and for suggesting some general reflections on the inhabitants of the area that was studied. First of all we have to note the extraordinary differences between the North and the South Polar regions; in the one there is the polar sea, in the other solid land. In the one case, the surfaces of its solid places are dominated by rapacious Carnivores which, ever hungry in such climes, have compelled all defenceless animals to assume the same colour as themselves and the snow on which they live. In the other, the absence of aggressors allows the Penguins to assume the splendid and beautiful colourations which are so well shown in Dr. Wilson's admirable drawings. The Antarctic region, instead of being, as we might imagine, with its inhospitable climate, almost devoid of life, teems with species, of which 227 new forms are described in these volumes. Of some Amphipoda Mr. Jlodo-son writes "It was quite the usual thing to take 10,000 to 30,000 at a haul." And the collection of the 'Discovery' Schizopoda contained one species which was represented by nearly 10, 000 specimens. Students of Professor Ehlers' report on the Polychseta will have only a faint idea of the number of specimens of Harmothoe spinosa brought back by the Expedition. The Alga Lessonia (randiflora was found to have a lamina as much as 24 feet long; on the other hand, M.Cardot noted that most of the species of Mosses showed signs, which he has detailed, of the severity of their struggle for existence. With the exception of some Algae, no freshwater organisms were obtained by the 'Discovery' Expedition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
