An ex-library copy, bound in contempory 3/4-leather and cloth, with original wrappers bound in (followed by a number of blank leaves). Perforated stamp to pp. 87/88, other usual library marks. Vertical edge of a few pages near beginning a little jagged. Else Very Good. The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 1933 was awarded to Thomas H. Morgan 'for his discoveries concerning the role played by the chromosome in heredity.' 'The rediscovery of Gregor Mendel's work in 1900 brought questions of evolution and heredity to the fore in biological circles. Morgan began investigations of Mendelian inheritance in 1905, when he started breeding rats and mice (Kohler 1994). In the summer of 1907, he caught a house mouse in Woods Hole with the 'sport,' or mutation, of a pure white belly. 'Later, I caught two more such mice and, in the same closet, another typical house mouse. In the neighborhood, I have caught a few other white-bellied mice,' Morgan reported (which summons a vision of an agile Morgan chasing mice around Woods Hole). Morgan then obtained white-bellied mice from Iowa and New York and began a series of breeding experiments crossing the wild sport with various domesticated races. 'My intention was to familiarize myself at first hand with the process of Mendelian inheritance,' he wrote, by observing the varieties of coat color that his crosses produced (Morgan 1911b, p. 88) [= paper offered here]' (Diana E. Kenney & Gary G. Borisy, 'Thomas Hunt Morgan at the Marine Biological Laboratory: Naturalist and Experimentalist', Genetics, March 2009; 181(3): 841 846).

The binding is sound, the text is clean and unmarked.Garrison-Morton 246 (first edition): "Summarizes the major early findings of Morgan's Drosophila research group, which based its research on the rapidly reproducing small vinegar fly, Drosophila melanogaster, often called the fruit fly. This epoch-making book presented evidence that genes were arranged linearly on chromosomes, and that the Mendelian laws could be shown to be based on observable events occurring in cells. The group also showed that heredity could be studied rigorously and quantitatively. Morgan was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1933 ['for his discoveries concerning the role played by the chromosome in heredity']." Hermann J. Muller was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1946 "for the discovery of the production of mutations by means of X-ray irradiation". The first printing has the date 1915 printed on the title page. The date was removed from the title page in later printings and a number, such as 2, was printed on the verso of the title page to indicate the printing.
