14. OBSERVATIONS on the ZOONOMIA of ERASMUS DARWIN, M. D. by Thomas Brown, Esq. one large vol. 8vo.—Price 8s. boards.
"Mr. Brown is the first formidable antagonist whom the novelty of Dr. Darwin's theories has provoked. He has entered on his investigation, however, with all the respect due to the great talents and extensive knowledge of the author whom he criticises; and whatever may have been our partiality to the beautiful fabric which he attempts to overthrow, we must consider him as a champion worthy of being admitted to the encounter.
"To conclude, we think that this book is a very respectable specimen of the author's talents and attainments. With much vigour and acuteness of mind, it exhibits a liberal and truly philosophical spirit; and though we have ventured in some instances to express a difference of opinion with Mr. Brown, we cannot take leave of his performance without intimating our hope that we shall have fresh occasions hereafter of giving our unbiassed suffrage to his abilities."—Monthly Review, June and July 1799.
