Introduction

THE embryo which forms the basis of this work came from Dr Robert Meyer's collection in Berlin. Sent to Professor Keibel, who was accumulating material for his forthcoming Normentafeln of human embryos, the specimen was most kindly lent to me with the object of making a model whilst I was at the Anatomical Institute in Freiburg during the summer of 1906. Working with this specimen, I had an excellent opportunity of becoming acquainted with the reconstruction of embryos by the wax-plate method, as carried out so successfully in that University.
