Referee's report by Allen Thomson, on a paper 'On the arrangement of the muscular fibres in the ventricles of the vertebrate heart, with physiological remarks' by James Bell Pettigrew
Reference number: RR/5/181
Date: 1860
Description
Recommended for publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. The dissections were on display at the Royal Society when the paper was read, which gave a chance for the referee to inspect them. The diagrams do not coincide exactly with the dissections. Suggests a simplification of the descriptive part by a slight rearrangement of topics covered. The illustrations are too numerous and complicated for inclusion in print. Suggests a smaller number of carefully finished drawing be produced. Suggests a re-wording of the paper to improve clarity.
