Excerpt from Text-Book of Embryology

The generally favorable criticisms with which the first edition of the text book has been received and the necessity for a second edition in two years is gratifying. If its reception may serve as a criterion of its usefulness as a book intended primarily for the student of medicine, it is fulfilling the main pur pose of its authors.

In the present edition some errors have been corrected and some para graphs have been rewritten, owing to the fact that important advances have been made in the science even in the brief time elapsing between the two editions. There has been however no change in the general plan and scope of the work, as outlined in the preface to the first edition.

Excerpt from Text-Book of Embryology

The Text-book, as originally planned, is an outgrowth of the course in Embryology given at the Medical Department of Columbia University. It was intended primarily to present to the student of medicine the most important facts of development, at the same time emphasizing those features which bear directly upon other branches of medicine. As the work took form, it seemed best to broaden its scope and make it of greater value to the general student of embryology and allied sciences. With the opinion that illustrations convey a much clearer conception of structural features than verbal description alone, the writers have made free use of figures.

The plan of adding brief "Practical Suggestions" at the end of each chapter has been so thoroughly satisfactory in the Text-book of Histology, especially in connection with laboratory work, that it has been adopted here. These "suggestions" are not intended to be complete descriptions of embryological technic, but are for the purpose of furnishing the laboratory worker with certain of the more essential practical hints for studying the structures described in the chapter. To avoid frequent repetition, some of the best methods of procuring, handling, and preparing embryological material, and some of the more important formulæ are given in the Appendix, which is intended to be used mainly for the carrying out of the "Practical Suggestions."

The development of the Germ Layers has been treated rather elaborately from a comparative standpoint, because this has been found the most satisfactory method of teaching the subject.

In the chapter on the Nervous System the aim has been to give a general conception of the subject, which, if once mastered by the student, will give him an insight into the structure and significance of the nervous system that will bring this difficult subject more fully within his grasp.
