Excerpt from The Morphology of the Skull A sketch of the history of the skull in the principal types of vertebrates is here for the first time presented. It has been attempted to narrate the facts by means of a consistent terminology, amplifying what Prof. Huxley has admirably developed, but the descriptions involve as few theoretical opinions as possible. The convenience of students has been considered throughout, summaries of nearly every stage, and of each Chapter from the second to the eighth, have been carefully drawn up. By the help of the index the history of individual bones or tracts can be examined comparatively. Many points of interest have necessarily been omitted in a work treating of anatomy especially in a developmental aspect. It is not expected that the book will be thoroughly intelligible after mere reading. The limitations of space and of illustration will in some cases account for this, but frequently the complexity of the structures described is such that a brief description may easily lack clearness.
