Sinossi
Excerpt from The Evolution of Man: A Popular Scientific Study
The main theme of the work is that, in the course of their embryonic development, all animals, including man, pass roughly and rapidly through a series of forms which represents the succession of their ancestors in the past. After a severe and extensive study of embryonic phenomena, Haeckel has drawn up a law (in the ordinary scientific sense) to this effect, and has called it the biogenetic law, or the chief law relating to the evolution (genesis) of life (bios). This law is widely and increasingly accepted by embryologists and zoologists. It is enough to quote a recent' declaration of the great American zoologist, President D. Starr Jordan It is, of course, true that the life-history of the individual is an epitome of the life-history of the race while a distinguished German zoologist (sarasin) has described it as being of the same use to the biologist as spectrum analysis is to the astronomer.
