DCP-LETT-6276

From:
Charles Robert Darwin
To:
Joseph Dalton Hooker
Date:
14 July 1868
Source of text:
DAR 94: 76–7
Summary:

Thinks JDH would be wise not to touch on Pangenesis; it has very few friends. Bentham is doubtful, Carus against, and Alphonse de Candolle likes it least in the book. CD still convinced it will be hereafter looked on as "best hypothesis of generation inheritance & development". If JDH means to cut up Pangenesis he has no word to say in opposition.
