Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biological Lectures, Delivered At, the Marine Biological Laboratory, of Wood's Hool: In the Summer Session of 1890 The addresses and lectures contained in this volume, with two exceptions, were delivered at the Marine Bio logical Laboratory during the summer session of 1890. They are a continuation of the Evening Lectures begun in the previous session. The educational value which such lectures may be pre sumed to have, and the consideration that through them the aims, the needs, and the possibilities of biological work might, in some measure, be made better known to the public, especially to those whose liberal benefactions have enabled the Laboratory to carry forward its work, suggested the propriety of publication. This step, how ever, was not decided upon until late in the session of this year, after most of the lectures here presented had been delivered. The preparation of the mss. For this purpose has been an extra tax upon the time of the contributors and, as this was done at my solicitation, I desire to acknowledge here my great obligation to them for this part of their invaluable co-operation in the work of the Laboratory.
