My thanks are due to the editors and pubhshers of the journals, etc., in which these papers first appeared, for permission to republish them in this volume. The papers appear in chronological order. Hence it is important that all their statements of methods, results, and statistics should be considered in connection with the date of the publication of each paper. In some cases I have given in footnotes later information and statistics. One rather serious objection to repubU shing these papers in full and just as they were written is that there is considerable repetition. But it must be remembered that they were published or delivered at various times in many years and that they were read or heard by very different sets of readers or hearers. Naturally I wished each address or paper to be complete in itself. Moreover, a potent reason for the repetitions is that they were intended to meet the constantly repeated misstatements by the opponents of experimental research in spite of pubhc exposure of these misstatements. This is well illustrated by the case of Dr. Wentworth, which is fully stated on pages 274-278. I have frequently used the word vivisection.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
