Abstract
WHATEVER may be thought of their reputed powers in other directions, there is no question of the peculiar fascination exercised by snakes upon the popular imagination, so that a translation of a work by Prof. Calmette, whose name in all that relates to snake-venoms and antivenoms is familiar in men's mouths as household words, is certain to command attention.

By Dr A. Calmette. Translated by E. E. Austen. Pp. xvi+403. (London: John Bale, Sons, and Danielsson, Ltd., 1908.) Price 15s. net.
