Abstract
SIR RAY LANKESTER was one of the most versatile and inspiring scientific men of his generation. His own researches in biology and geology were remarkably varied, but his active interest in the work of others was still more comprehensive. He watched each new development and did not hesitate to form his own opinions on the evidence produced. He frequently entered discussions on problems outside his immediate sphere, and helped to illuminate them by his keen appreciation of their nature and possible mode of treatment.
