Item description from seller

Cope was a subscriber to the Lamarckian theory of evolution, holding that individuals pass acquired traits to their offspring; although incorrect, the view was widespread among paleontologists at the time. Cope presents views on the human race that would today be recognized as racist. One of the foremost paleontologists of his time, becoming an authority in the study of fishes. From Proceedings of Amer. Assoc. for the Advancement of Science, Aug., 1877. Gray cover, no back cover. An original edition, not a modern reprint. Scarce.
