BIBLIOGRAPHY 



IN suggesting the following course of reading, an attempt 

 has been made to cover most of the leading sections of 

 Biology. It must be remembered, however, that the course 

 of reading that will give the best results, is to follow one's 

 personal inclination, and to use that particular section as 

 the centre from which, or to which, all other sections lead. 

 Books most suitable for a beginner are marked with an 

 asterisk. 



A. OBIGIN OF LIFE 



*Moore, B. The Origin and Nature of Life. This deals 



with practically all the theories in an elementary 



manner.

Professor Schafer deals with the origin of life from 



the chemico -physical standpoint.

 This is a masterly account of the structure of the cell

 Britannica and in Chambers's Encyclopaedia. These
