This 1979 book charts a number of significant advances in our knowledge of the cytology, physiology and biochemistry of the growth of mould hyphae. It is a symposium volume, which includes contributions from leading research workers in the field. The articles concentrate on the detained investigations of a number of well known fungi, including Aspergillus, Neurospora, Mucor, Schizophyllum, Coprinus and Saccharomyces. Not only will it be of great interest to graduate students and research workers in these areas but also to geneticists and developmental biologists concerned with growth processes, especially since a number of these fungi were often employed in such studies.

Edward Burnett Tylor (1832–1917) was an English anthropologist who is widely considered the founder of anthropology as a scientific discipline. He was the first Professor of Anthropology at the University of Oxford from 1896 to 1909, and developed a broad definition of culture which is still used by scholars. First published in 1871, this classic two-volume work explains Tylor's idea of cultural evolution in relation to anthropology, a social theory which states that human cultures invariably change over time to become more complex. Unlike his contemporaries, Tylor did not link biological evolution to cultural evolution, asserting that all human minds are the same irrespective of a society's state of evolution. His book was extremely influential in popularising the study of anthropology and establishing cultural evolution as the main theoretical framework followed by anthropologists in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
