Abstract
IN this book the reader will find a stimulating discussion of known facts about heredity, genes, endocrine organs and related biological conceptions. The terminology of these conceptions is freely used nowadays, often without a clear understanding of its meaning. It is therefore important that this meaning should be precisely understood. For this reason alone this book should be read.
