Excerpt from The Human Race IT is to be regretted that so charming a writer as M. Louis Figuier should be often somewhat inaccurate in statement, especially in treating of scientific subjects. In the present work some passages had to be written anew, but for the most part the necessary corrections and interpolations have been made so as, to break as little as possible the current and continuity of M. Figuier's characteristic style. M. Figuier's Opinions have been retained as far as possible, but where necessary the work has been harmonised with the accepted results of modern scientific generalisation and research. His opinions and statements have often' been allowed to stand unaltered, even when doubtful. It was only when they were obviously and glaringly erroneous or antiquated, that the Editor of this work felt justified in modifying them.
