This book is the first comprehensive description of development of
the Acipenserid fish published in the English language. It con
tains the results of more than 40 years of studies by the authors
and their colleagues. My own life in science has been intimately
related both with the authors and the fish, which are the subject
of this book. Therefore, it gives me a great pleasure to present to
the English reader an expanded version of the book. Those
interested in the history of biology must be well aware of the fact
that genetics in the USSR was practically demolished by Lysenko at
the session of the Lenin All-Union Academy of Agricultural Sciences
in 1948. However, it is much less well known that other fundamental
branches of biology were also persecuted at that time, experimental
embryology (developmental mechanics) among them. As a result, many
embryologists, in cluding the authors of this book, were forced to
turn to more ap plied problems, this being the only way to continue
research. They had to abandon amphibians and concentrate their
efforts on sturgeon."
