Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In tlie February number, 1879, of a wellknown German scientific journal, Kosmos, Dr. Ernst Krause published a sketch of the life of Erasmus Darwin, the author of the Zoonomia, Botanic G-arden, and other works. This article bears the title of aC ontribution to the history of theD escent-T heory; and Dr. Krause has kindly allowed my brother Erasmus and myself to have a translation made of it for publication in this country. As I have private materials for adding to the knowledge of Erasmus Darwin scharacter, I have written a preliminary notice. These materials consist of a large collection of lettei swritten by him; of his common-place book in folio, in the possession of his grandson Reginald Darwin; of some notes made shortly Mr. Dallas has undertaken the translation, and his scientific reputation, together with his knowledge of German, is a guarantee for its accuracy.
(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)
