Abstract
THIS is a very interesting book, and we commend it heartily to the readers of NATURE. Even had we at hand, what we have not as yet, a series of translations of all Aristotle's works on natural and physical science, it would be no easy task for the student to lay hold of the great mass of scattered facts therein contained, to deal with the many repetitions and the not infrequent contradictions, and to set in order in his mind the range of ancient science as represented by Aristotle. This is the task that Dr. Lones has undertaken, and he has brought to bear upon it a great deal of learning and much patience and editorial skill.
Aristotle's Researches in Natural Science.
By Dr. T. E. Lones. Pp. viii + 274. (London: West, Newman and Co., 1912.) Price 6s. net.
