Brazier Howell of two chapters in the book: Chapter VII "The Muscular System", pp. 89-175, and Chapter XVI, "The Spinal Nerves", pp. 307-327. The chapter on the muscular system at 86 pages is the longest chapter in the book, by far. Straus was a member of the National Academy of Sciences. Quoting from the website of the National Academy of Sciences: "William L. Straus, Jr. made major strides in the field of anatomy, particularly in the evolution of the foot in primates. Combining research in paleontology with anatomical studies, Straus argued that humans and apes descended from separate, but related animals. Originally interested in history, Straus received an A.B. degree in the subject from Johns Hopkins University in 1920. However, his focus shifted towards the natural sciences, and in 1926, he earned a Ph.D. in zoology from Johns Hopkins. He taught anatomy at his alma mater from 1927 to 1952. In 1947, Straus became the head of the Department of Anatomy at Johns Hopkins, and held the position for two years. In 1952, he started teaching physical anthropology, and in 1957, he became professor of anatomy and physical anthropology. He was a member of the American Institute of Human Paleontology, the American Association of Physical Anthropologists, where he was the president from 1953 to 1955, and the American Society of Mammalogists. For his extensive research in the field of physical anthropology, Straus received the Viking Fund Award in 1952.". …
