This article literally appraises the book "Life of Sir John Lubbock (Lord Avebury)," by Horace G. Hutchinson. In a sense, this biography closes an epoch in scientific thought. Sir John Lubboek was about the last of that group of distinguished men of science who made the Victorian period so notable. The biographies of these men are interesting not only as records of individual attainments, but, taken together, they give us the history of one of the important schools of thought.
