Excerpt from Natural Selection and Tropical Nature: Essays on Descriptive and Theoretical Biology In preparing a new edition of these works to appear as a single volume I have thought it advisable to omit two essays - that on The Malayan Papilionidae as being too technical for general readers, and that on The Distribution of Animals as indicating Geographical Changes, which con tains nothing that is not more fully treated in my other works. Another essay by-paths in the Domain of Biology - has also been partly omitted, one portion of it forming a short chapter on The Antiquity and Origin of Man, while another portion has been incorporated in the chapter on The Colours of Animals and Sexual Selection. More than compensating for these omissions are two new chapters - The Antiquity of Man in North America and The Debt of Science to Darwin.
