Excerpt from Essentials of Zoology: For Students of Medicine and First Year Students of Science

Whether the student is to specialise in Medicine or Agri culture or is to pursue a course in Pure Science, his knowledge of Zoology must be founded upon and can only be obtained by personal enquiry with reference to a series of types. The types are selected with a view to his finding out for himself the more important facts of comparative anatomy, physiology and embryology, gaining practice in methods of study, and forming an acquaintance with the literature of the subject. These are the essentials, and Should be conveyed by the teacher without undue bias as to the future studies of the student, and without particular reference to the problems which happen to be the fashion of the moment.

This work is arranged as a guide to the student in acquiring this essential fundamental knowledge. The types chosen are those used in the majority of the Universities and Schools, or are nearly allied to them. More are described than teachers have time usually to accomplish in the First Year but in this respect it will meet the requirements of teachers who have the Opportunity of adopting the recommendation Of the General Medical Council that specialised instruction in Biology in its application to Medicine should be included in the medical curriculum.

The types are arranged in zoological sequence, and tables are given to indicate their systematic position. Nevertheless, the description of each is complete enough to permit the study commencing with reference to any one of them. The types selected, moreover, are generally distributed, or allied forms may be readily procured, so that the book may be used by students in other countries.
