Abstract
IF we may judge from a statement on p. 7, Mr. Dixon is of opinion that stone-throwing is a proper and suitable practice for the tenants of glass houses. For since he classes Darwin as a “compiler,” he can scarcely have the presumption to exclude himself from the same category! As a matter of fact, Mr. Dixon's works are to a great extent compilations from the writings or observations of others, and the present volume appears to be no exception to the rule.
