Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Zoology: Illustrated by the Crayfish
It is for this reason that I have termed the book an Introduction to Zoology. For, whoever will follow its pages, crayfish in hand, and will try to verify for himself the statements which it contains, will find himself brought face to face with all the great zoological questions which excite so lively an interest at the present day he will understand the method by which alone we can hope to attain to satisfactory answers of these questions; and, finally, he will appreciate the justice of Diderot's remark.
