Referee's report by John Bostock, on a paper 'Observations on the relation which exists between the respiratory organs of animals, and the preservation of independent temperatures' by George Macilwain Not recommended for publication in Philosophical Transactions. Although it 'contains some interesting observations', the arguments employed by the author appear 'inconclusive'. The referee also doesn't like the writing style employed throughout the paper. Subject: Zoology [Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society, 1837]. 5 July 1843
