Abstract
THE book before us is one of the useful series of household guide books, published by the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge and intended to instruct the people in some of the more important laws of health. There are so many guide books on this subject at the present time that Prof. Seeley has, we feel sure, found it a difficulty of no slight kind to put before his readers the material he had in hand, so as to feel that he was supplying anything that by its novelty could be considered acceptable. Happily the enormous importance of his theme has come to his aid, and has enabled him to bring forth an essay which makes up in earnestness whatever it may, by very necessity, want in originality; for health is like truth—it can never be confirmed enough, nor have too many able expositors.
Factors in Life.
By H. G. Seeley “People's Library Series.” (London: Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, 1888.)
