A MAN 



Being Memories of a Naturalist, Teacher, 

 and Minor Prophet of Democracy 



BY DAVID STARR JORDAN 



This autobiography of a former president of the American 

 Association for the Advancement of iScience carries a 

 special appeal to all men of science. 



The author's extensive biological research, his services and 

 excursions in many countnes, and Agassiz's great school at 

 Penikese form themes that are delightfully developed. 

 The accounts of scientific v\^ork include to a large degree 

 the history of biological science in America.

 light on current history, with intimate glimpses of such 

 persons as Theodore Roosevelt, W. H. Taft, Herbert 

 Hoover, Lloyd George, Sir William Osier, Hugo De 

 Vries, to mention only a few. 



And underlying the whole is the philosophy of a man 

 who has established a real science of living.
