Abstract
PROF. CLELAND is so well known as a skilled anatomist who holds some views of his own on the subject of evolution, that we are glad to welcome in this book a definite statement of what these views are. The work, moreover, is throughout very interesting. It is a collection of six essays, of which the first is on Evolution, the second on Expression, the third on Vision, the fourth on a Theory concerning the relations of Body and Mind, the fifth on Theories of the Cell, and the sixth a reprint of an address to medical students on Truth, Pathology, and the Public. These essays display a good deal of original and suggestive thinking, though not always of a kind with which we are disposed to agree.
Evolution, Expression, and Sensation.
By John Cleland, Professor of Anatomy in the University of Glasgow. (Glasgow: James Maclehose, 1881.)
