Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Comparative Zoology The present volume is intended as an introduction to the serious study of zoology. It embraces directions for laboratory work upon a selected series of animal types and a general account of related forms. Laboratory guides are somewhat numerous, but general outlines of zoology adapted to beginners are few. By combining the two, it has been possible to emphasize the comparative side of the subject. A knowledge of isolated facts, no matter how extensive, is of little value in education, excepting as the powers of observation are trained in ascertaining those facts. Nature studies are truly educational only when the student is trained to correlate and classify facts. A considerable experience with students of different ages has resulted in the conviction that it is not sufficient to ask one to compare a grasshopper and a beetle, pointing out their resemblances and points of difference; leading questions must be asked. When the student has answered the questions under the headings "Comparisons" in the following pages, he has a tolerably complete statement of the principal characters of the larger groups of the animal kingdom. Several considerations have had weight in the selection of types to be studied in detail. In the first place, so far as possible, these should be such as are readily obtainable in any locality. But there are certain important groups, all the members of which are marine. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Elements of the Comparative written by W. Newton Parker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of the Comparative: Anatomy of Vertebrates The brevity of the descriptions is, however, to some extent made up for by the number of woodcuts. Most of these are taken from the German edition, but several new figures have been added. The arrangement of the book according to organs, and not according to groups of animals, is likely to render it more difficult for a beginner, and a general knowledge of zoology will be of great assistance. The pages on which the different groups are described are, however, collected together in the index, so that the sections relating to any one group can be easily referred to. The present arrangement seems to be the only possible one if the book is to be founded on a scientific basis, for it is most important that the student should grasp the fact that there has been an evolution of organs, as well as of animals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Contains, substantially, the lectures ... delivered, in the spring of 1863, at the Royal college of surgeons of England ..." Known primarily as the protagonist of evolution in the controversies immediately following the publication of Darwin's On the Origin of Species late in 1859, zoologist Huxley studied and wrote on a wide range of subjects, including education, philosophy, evolution and religion. "In 1863 he delivered a course of lectures at the College of Surgeons 'On the Classification of Animals, ' and another 'On the Vertebrate Skull'. The scrupulous care with which he endeavored to verify by actual observation every statement made in his lectures rendered the labor of preparation very great. Sir William Flower describes the way in which he would spend long evenings at the College of Surgeons, dissecting animals available among the stores, or making rapid notes and drawings, after a day's work in Jermyn Street. The consequences were twofold; the vivid impression of his own recent experience was communicated to his hearers, and the work of preparation became at once an incentive to further research and a means of pursuing it" (DNB).
