Book Overview

The Life and Letters of Thomas Henry Huxley Volume 1 is a biographical work written by Leonard Huxley. This book provides a comprehensive account of the life and achievements of Thomas Henry Huxley, who was a prominent biologist, philosopher, and educator in the 19th century. The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different period in Huxley's life. The first section provides an overview of Huxley's early life and education, while the second section focuses on his career as a scientist and his contributions to the field of biology. The third section covers Huxley's work as a philosopher and his views on various topics such as religion, ethics, and evolution. The final section of the book contains a collection of Huxley's letters, which provide insight into his personal life and relationships. Overall, The Life and Letters of Thomas Henry Huxley Volume 1 is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the life and work of one of the most influential scientists of the 19th century.6. I have the materials for a monograph upon the Acalephae and Hydrostatic Acalephae. I have examined very carefully more than forty genera of these animals--many of them very rare, and some quite new. But I paid comparatively little attention to the collection of new species, caring rather to come to some clear and definite idea as to the structure of those which had indeed been long known, but very little understood. Unfortunately for science, but fortunately for me, this method appears to have been somewhat novel with observers of these animals, and consequently everywhere new and remarkable facts were to be had for the picking up.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
