Excerpt from Journal of Morphology: As Such, and as Organism

The work, at time of its doing, embodied an appeal to the normal, living substance, as against "preserved" and tortured states, in which the prevailing standpoint delighted, and from which even workers of physiological bias had not freed themselves.

As pioneer work it then ran sufficiently counter to prevailing enthusiasms to be in danger of harsh dealing; to-day it may hope for some scattered sympathy. A direct, independent appeal to protoplasm, per se, which I have been led to call in terms of my results, the living substance, as such; it was unhampered by theory or predilection, except what may be described as a belief in life-genii more complex and more potent than even surface tension and osmosis.

The work was carried on partly at the Marine Laboratory at Wood's Holl, partly at the University of Pennsylvania, and finished in the spring of 1894. It was assisted by constant study, during the preceding ten years, of many of the forms then used for specialized research. The very full memoranda made always at the moment have since been confirmed by frequent and iterated observations on the same, or closely allied, material. A few new facts gained in the course of these are omitted here, since they are in the nature of confirmation purely, and the mass of facts was already too great to be used in toto.

All controversial references, except a few to Butschli's epoch-making work on protoplasm, to which I owe much, and which gave the point of departure for these researches, have been omitted, both because the work, save for this, was wholly independent, and because such reference would have increased the paper to a size unsuitable even for book form.

And a controversial tone is wholly unnecessary, since the facts harmonize rather than clash with all other well-authenticated facts known to me.
