ABTRACT--Available museum collections have been utilised for a functional analysis of common members of the bivalve fauna of the Cretaceous Chalk Formation of England. It is concluded that many members of the fauna were able to inhabit their unusual environment by virtue of specialised adaptations. There is an apparent paucity of infaunal bivalves in true Chalk lithology, and the fauna is domin...

Outlines of Enzyme Chemistry

lesions tend to have relatively large numbers of tubercle bacilli present, whereas others tend to have very few. However, the variations in the number of bacilli found in any one type of lesion is often so great that the average does not give a true picture of the situation. In one instance, for example, a series of 19 lesions were studied in which the bacterial content varied from 0 to 20,000 ...

Outlines of General Psychopathology

Dr. Malamud points out that though this science has a definite and special value in its own field, yet, as its close approximation to other branches of science, such as medicine, psychopathology and education, alone indicates, its ramifications are both complex and diverse. None the less,...

As a general rule, we are opposed to Scientific Manuals, for the use of students, which treat in an elementary way of the scicnces whose principles and bearings it is the student's duty to master during his university career. We are opposed to them because, from their elementary nature, they contribute to convey to his mind a false impression of the limits of the science and of its relations to...
