Abstract
MY “Structure and Development of the ‘Living Matter,’” reviewed in NATURE of April 21, p. 610, discusses also the origin and fate of some components of animal and vegetable cells. Important new observations at variance with former interpretations based on Meves's work on the spermatogenesis of the guinea-pig, make a revision of the chapters on spermatid organisation indispensable. But Prof. Gatenby's paper on the Golgi apparatus and acrosome development require in their turn a revision, and this was given in “Living Matter.” As its reviewer, Prof. Gatenby objects to several points referring to the problem of the Golgi apparatus, and especially to the origin of the ‘acrosome.’ He tries to find fault with me for technical, personal, and formal reasons, but that is not the point here.
