About this eBook

Author Huxley, Thomas Henry, 1825-1895
Title On the Study of Zoology
Credits Produced by Amy E. Zelmer, and David Widger
Summary "On the Study of Zoology" by Thomas Henry Huxley is a scientific publication written during the Victorian era. This book delves into the intricate study of zoology, exploring the structure, function, and classification of animals in relation to their physiology and morphology. Huxley emphasizes the importance of teaching scientific concepts in a practical and comprehensive manner, making it a valuable resource for both students and educators in the field of natural sciences. In this work, Huxley articulates the significance of understanding animal life through both observational and experimental approaches. He uses the lobster as a primary example to illustrate key concepts in morphology, physiology, and the classification of species. By examining the lobster's anatomy, development, and biological functions, Huxley demonstrates the principles of unity in diversity among living organisms. The book encourages readers to engage actively with natural science, advocating for a hands-on method of learning that grounds theoretical knowledge in concrete experience, making Huxley’s insights both instructional and formative for the study of zoology.
