Overview

Excerpt from Biology and Its Makers: With Portraits and Other Illustrations In this sketch I have attempted to bring under one view the broad features of biological progress, and to increase the human interest by writing the story around the lives of the great Leaders. The practical execution of the task resolved itself largely into the question of what to omit. The number of detailed researches upon which progress in biology rests made rigid selection necessary, and the difficulties of separat ing the essential from the less important, and of distinguish ing between men of temporary notoriety and those of endur ing fame, have given rise to no small perplexities.
