"Furnishes a clear and comprehensive exposition of the 

 subject in a systematic form. For the highest three groups 

 of animals the types described are the frog, the pigeon, and 

 the rabbit. So full are the details of the Morphology, 

 Physiology, and Development of these three types, that 

 150 pages are occupied in their description, illustration, and 

 comparison. Yet nowhere does there seem to be a single 

 phrase in excess. A valuable Bibliography is appended, 

 besides Index-Glossary."— Saturday Review.
