Synopsis
Excerpt from An Inaugural Dissertation, Containing Some Observations on the Pelvis of the Mammalia, Which, Under the Presidency of Autenreith, Professor of Anatomy and Surgery, Was Offered for Public Examination by John Fischer: A Candidate for the Degree of Doctor of Medicine Tubingen, September, 1798
I return to you, unchanged, the dissertation you presented to me, adding to it but a few observations, expressed in a different type, lest, any thing unpleasant in the annotations might be attributed to you. This academical dissertation is not only highly creditable to your learning, but proves your mind to be untrammelled by the narrow limits of mere practical art and doctrine, and therefore equal to the advancement of science. Permit me, however, merely to remark to you, that you have neglected taking an enlarged View of the whole material collected by you, although individual parts are perfectly illustrated thus leaving to the reader the troublesome task of dis covering the fruit all the more difficult amidst a material by no means trite or common. The following is all which a want of leisure and. Opportunity permit me to effect towards remedying this difficulty.
