Synopsis

Excerpt from Micro-Organisms: With Special Reference to the Etiology of the Infective Diseases

I have not made any attempt to give a scientific classification of the bacteria, and the characteristics described are only of use practically in enabling the reader to Obtain a general idea as regards the species already known, and to recognise new species should he meet with them, &c. In this way material will be collected, which may, perhaps, at a future period be Of use in leading us to a truly scientific classification.

Our knowledge of micro-organisms is as yet so imperfect that for the present we absolutely require some such rough method of making ourselves mutually intelligible. The attempts to classify bacteria according to other principles, and with reference to their ontogenetic and phylogenetic development are doubtless justified, but in w of the small number of definite Observations are premature, and at any rate for practical purposes are in the mean time completely useless.
