Abstract
THIS well-designed and lucidly written book by one of the foremost younger geneticists is a thoughtful contribution to the problem of the origin of species. Not only does the author bring forward a clear and balanced statement of the genetical viewpoint, but he also supplies an exposition of recent genetical, cytological and statistical work in a form which is easily assimilated by the non-specialist.
