TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE
Original spelling and grammar have been generally retained, with some exceptions noted below. Original printed page numbers are shown like this: {52}. Original small caps are now uppercase. Italics look _like this_. Footnotes have been renumbered 1–663 and relocated to the end of the book, ahead of the Index. The transcriber produced the cover image and hereby assigns it to the public domain. Original page images are available from archive.org—search for “ongrowthform1917thom”.
Some tables and illustrations have been moved from their original locations within paragraphs of text to nearby locations between paragraphs. This includes, for example, the full-page table printed on page 67, which page number is removed from these ebook editions. Some other tables and illustrations have been left where they originally lay, in the middle of paragraphs of text.
Some, but not all ditto marks , including “do.”, have been eliminated. Enlarged curly brackets { } turned horizontal, used as graphic devices in the printed book to combine information in two or more columns of a table, have been eliminated. Enlarged curly brackets { }, used as graphic devices to suggest combination of information over two or more lines of text, have been eliminated. For example, on page 75, in the last column of the table, two lengths, 490 and 500, were printed, the latter under the former, with a large right curly bracket combining them. The transcriber has changed that construction to “490–500”, taking the original to mean a range.
Page 106. Changed “it we could believe” to “if we could believe”.
Page 107. Changed “(m.)” to “(mm.)”, in column 3 of the table.
Page 117. Both “_Q__{10}” and “_Q_^{10}” appear on the page as originally printed.
Page 272n. Changed “_Proc. R y. Soc._ XII” to “_Proc. Roy. Soc._ XII”.
Page 368. Perhaps, the original “The area of the enlarged sector, _p′OA′_” should read “The area of the enlarged sector, _P′OA′_”.
Page 428n. Changed “Phenonemon” to “Phenomenon”.
Page 463n. Changed “Raphidophrys” to “Raphidiophrys”.
Page 543. The Unicode character [⪌ u+2a8c greater-than above double-line equal above less-than] is pretty rare, and may not display properly in most fonts. An image is used instead of the Unicode in all but the simple text edition.
Page 676. The Unicode character [⌶ u+2336 APL functional symbol i-beam] is also unusual. An image is substituted in all but the simple text edition.
Page 748. Changed “Fig. 474” to “Fig. 374”.
Page 768. Changed “in the case of _Pro ohippus_” to “in the case of _Protohippus_”. ¶ There were three footnotes on this page, but only two footnote anchors. The second footnote, missing an anchor, said “† Cf. _Zittel, Grundzüge d. Palaeontologie_, p. 463, 1911.”
