Synopsis

Discover cutting-edge science and natural history in this issue, from disease mechanisms to new wildlife findings.

This issue presents original research on the behavior of toxins in diphtheria and how they influence tissue lesions, alongside experimental evidence about how circulating toxins affect distant sites in the body. It also includes a detailed description of a proposed new snake species, Storeria victa, based on a specimen found in Florida, with notes on scale counts, coloration, and how it differs from related species. Additionally, the issue shares a letter concerning the higher education of the deaf, exploring the debate over oral versus manual instruction in schools for the deaf.

  • Context on educational debates shaping science and public policy.
