Hurst, the author and Doctor of Philosophy of the University… of Cambridge, England.: "We live in an age of scientific research when important discoveries are made every day and there is a danger lest, in the multiplicity of these discoveries, essential synthetic values may be lost in a maze of detail. After thirty years' experiments carried out in different parts of the world, with representative species of every type of living organism, the time seems to be ripe for a gathering together of the multitudinous facts which go to make up the genetical story of creative evolution." Red cloth binding with gold gilt lettering on spine. 365 pages. *NOTE: Due to weight of book additional shipping will be required for out-of-U.S. shipment in conjunction with destination. GC1.
