Excerpt from Handbook of Vertebrate Dissection, Vol. 3: How to Dissect a Rodent

Tms little book, like its predecessors in the same series, is' designed for use at the dissecting-table, and not to take the place of attendance on lectures or the study of a text-book of comparative anatomy. We have assumed that the teacher or text-book will supply such references to original sources as it is desirable that students should be acquainted with, and have accord; ingly entirely omitted all such. As some critics of Parts I. And II. Appear to have thought that such omis sion made it possible that the discoveries of others should be credited to us, we desire to state that, so far as we know, no new fact in mammalian or rat ana tomy is to be found in the following pages, nor any novel method of dissecting. What we have attempted is to make it easy for a student to learn practically what a mammal, regarded from a morphological stand point, is. In pursuance of this plan, details which are diagnostic or generally characteristic of mammalia have been treated with more fulness than generic or specific peculiarities.
