REVIEWS OF 'EVOLUTION, OLD AND NEW.' 



THOSE who have been at the pains to read the foregoing 

 book will, perhaps, pardon me if I put before them a 

 short account of the reception it has met with : I will 

 not waste time by arguing with my critics at any 

 length ; it will be enough if I place some of their 

 remarks upon my book under the same cover as the 

 book itself, with here and there a word or two of 

 comment. 



The only reviews which have come under my notice 

 appeared in the 'Academy' and the ' Examiner,' both of 

 May 17, 1879; the 'Edinburgh Daily Review,' May 23, 

 1879; ' City Press,' May 21, 1879; ' Field/ May 26, 1879; 

 'Saturday Review/ May 31, 1879; 'Daily Chronicle/ 

 May 31, 1879 ; 'Graphic' and 'Nature/ both June 12, 

 1879 ; ' Pall Mall Gazette/ June 18, 1879 ; ' Literary
