Volume II of Józef Nusbaum-Hilarowicz’s *Principles of Comparative Anatomy*, one of the first Polish academic textbooks on the comparative anatomy of vertebrates, written in the spirit of evolutionary theory. From 1906, Nusbaum headed the Department of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy at the University of Lviv; one of his students was Rudolf Weigl, the developer of the vaccine against typhus. This volume discusses the structure of the organ systems of vertebrates, with numerous illustrations of cross-sections and developmental stages. Part of the “Natural History Library of the Universe” series.

A section of the upper margin has been cut out on the half-title page and the first numbered page, without affecting the text. Numerous underlinings.
