Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A nameless thing in novel's clothing: not coherent enough for fiction, not posing as poetry. A long foreword by Helene Axous (head of the Center of Research in Feminine Studies, U. of Paris) discusses this and other works by Lispector (Brazilian, 1925-1977). Clothbound edition ($19.95) not seen. Reprint. Originally published in 1982 (D. Reidel). Whereas the history of German biology in the early 19th century is usually dismissed as an unfortunate era dominated by arid speculation, Lenoir's study aims to reverse that judgment by showing that a consistent, workable program of research was elaborated by a well-connected group of German biologists.
