Excerpt from Experimental ZoologyPhysiology has from the beginning made use of the method of experiment, and with notable success. Morphology has, up to the present time, followed mainly the historical and descriptive methods, although striking exceptions could be cited. While the historical study of zoology must always remain a legitimate field for activity, as human history has been a time-honored study, yet there can be little doubt that the more promising and searching method of zoological study in the future will be found in experiment.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
