Synopsis
Excerpt from Morphology of Invertebrate Types
Owing to the rapid advance of Experimental Zoology, the older branches of morphological study such as Comparative Anatomy and Embryology, have been left in the background. In order to acquire familiarity with modern methods and problems, it became necessary to curtail the time allotted to Morphology. As a natural consequence the laboratory guides in general use in this country are more elementary than is de sirable. The result has proved in many ways unsatisfactory. The student is left with only a superficial knowledge of the structure, life and development of those very animals which in his later studies he is going to use for experiments.
But the high tide in Experimental Zoology has been reached and passed. A general tendency to return to morphological studies is manifest in recent years in the great increase in the number of papers dwelling upon the anatomy of invertebrates. It seems, therefore, desirable to place in the hands of the student, a manual which will enable him to lay the foundation for a knowledge of invertebrate anatomy.
