INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF

Zoology.

For Use in High Schools and Academies by

N. A. HARVEY. Head Department Science, Chicago Nor

mal School. Pres. Dept. Science,

Nat'l Educational Ass'n, 1901.

This is an elementary text-book based upon laboratory work.

It gives specific directions for laboratory work, followed with such necessary information about the auimals studied as cannot be obtained from the animals themselves.

It combines all the good features of laboratory science and those of the old Natural History study.

It contains work enough for one year of nine months, and is capable of being used in the first year of a high school course.

It can be used to very great advantage by those schools that have the most meager laboratory facilities. It is illustrated by reproductions from photographs of microscopic objects, thus obviating the absolute necessity of compound microscopes.

It is designed expressly to help those teachers who feel that they are poorly prepared to teach the subject. It is written from the standpoint of a profound student of educational philosophy and explains the content of the subject as no other book has ever done.

It grew up in the class-room, and is the result of ten years' experience in teaching zoology in county institutes, in high schools, state university and normal schools. Every exercise and every method has been tested and successfully used again and again.
