Referee's report by Ernest William MacBride, on a paper 'On regeneration and reorganisation in Sabella' by F Gross and Julian Sorell Huxley

Reference number: RR/53/99

Date: January 1935

Description

Sectional Committee: Zoology

Not recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. The question addressed is worthy of a full investigation and publication, but the present paper is superficial, with inconsistant results, upon which 'far-reaching conclusions' are based. Finds the work 'shoddy'.
