SynopsisExcerpt from The Sexes Throughout Nature In this faith, I offer the public these. Somewhat fragmentary papers; believing that they contain the germs of a new scientific estimate of feminine nature, from its earliest dawning in the plant up to devel 0ped womanhood in all its present complexity. They are probably faulty in many things, and may be proved to be wrong even on some very important points. The work is printed as it was written - ih snatches - not because the writer would escape the labor of systematic revision, but from the con viction that it will be more acceptable to the general reader in its present form. There are occasional repetitions, but, it is believed that each presents the subject in some new phase. The discussions are brief. Many other facts might be given, and many additional points brought forward in evidence of the main positions. But perhaps the book is quite long enough as it is.

Of the briefer articles, that on The Alleged Antagonism between Growth and Reproduction, appeared first in the Popular Science Monthly. The others, now slightly modified and rearranged, were first published in numbers in the Woman's Journal. These essays, closely related in subject, are all hung upon a framework of criticism. The great names of the gentlemen whose positions are controverted, as the oak to the ivy, serve as an excellent support to the overgrowing theses.
