Excerpt from An Introduction to Palaeontology My ideal (not always attained) has been, in treating each great group of fossils, first to describe with some fulness a few common species from which an idea of the general characters and range of variation may be obtained and then to give a brief systematic account of the group. The reader should not be satisfied unless he actually handles the selected species and compares them, point by point, with the description. When he cannot obtain the actual species described, he should take the nearest allied form accessible, and determine precisely how it differs from that described. Only by such definite practical work can he begin to qualify himself to become a palaeontologist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
