This special re-print edition of Detlefsen's book "Genetic Studies On A Cavy Species Cross" contains all the information a person needs to master the basics of raising Cavies or Guinea Pigs. Written in 1914, this book contains information gleaned from studies on the subject of Cavy genetics. The study involved crossing the species Cavia rufscens to Domestic Guinea Pigs and back-crossing their fertile female offspring to the parent species for successive generations. Subsequently, the inheritence of coat colors and other characteristics were studied. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface.

Featuring an introduction by Stephen Jay Gould, "Genetics and the Origin of Species" presents the first edition of Dobzhansky's groundbreaking and now classic inquiry into what has emerged as the most important single area of scientific inquiry in the twentieth century: biological theory of evolution. Genetics and the Origin of Species went through three editions (1937, 1941, and 1951) in which the importance accorded natural selection changed radically.
Excerpt from Genetic Studies on a Cavy Species Cross The genetic studies herewith presented were made possible for the author, by the reception of the foundation stock, in December 1909, from Dr. W. E. Castle. The first crosses had been made in 1903, and about 200 of the wild and intense wild-blooded hybrid animals had been born when the stock was received. The birth records, the weights, and such skeletons as had been saved, as well as the living hybrids, were made available to the author, who here expresses his gratitude for the privilege of using this material and for generous assistance, which was never withheld. He also wishes to acknowledge the valuable aid of Mr. Elmer Roberts, in the preparation Of the manuscript.
