Excerpt from Synopsis of the Classification of the Animal KingdomWhile definitions have been omitted, a limited num ber of illustrations have been introduced, as self-ex planatory of the text. Occasionally, also, remarks on doubtful points, or divergent views as to classification, are introduced, or alternative arrangements are sub mitted; and there are added to each group references to some of the sources of special information, which can be studied by advanced students. It seems hardly necessary to add that the purpose of such a classifica tion as is here given, is not that it should be, even in parts, committed to memory, but simply that it may serve as a skeleton, which the student must endow with life by his own work.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
