The translator, the antiquarian bookseller Wilhelm Junk, ends the short preface with: 'Meine Uebersetzung will das Verstaendnis erleichtern und erhebt keinen Anspruch auf philologische Akribie'. The translator is the famous antiquarian bookseller and publisher in the field of natural sciences Wilhelm Junk, born in Prague in 1866. 'Antiquariat Junk' in Berlin became from 1899 the leading bookdealer in works on natural history in Europe. In Berlin he was for a long time committee member of the 'Berliner Bibliophilen Abende'. Junk also edited and published several scientific reference works. A Jewish refugee, he moved his shop to The Hague in 1934. It took 2 ships to transport his stock. One year later he sold his shop to Rudolph Schierenberg, who kept the name 'Antiquariaat Junk'. The firm, now led by Allard, the son of Schierenberg, still exists in Amsterdam and still specializes in natural history. Junk kept in 1935 the publishing branch, which was called 'Uitgeverij Dr. W. Junk'. During a raid by the Nazi's in 1942 part of his stock was burned. On December 3, 1942, Wilhelm Junk and his wife, Elli Silbermann, born 1875, killed themselves, the moment the Gestapo stood at their door)
