Abstract
IN the two substantial volumes before us Mr. Sharp gives an exceedingly able and comprehensive summary of the educational work done in India in the period 1907–12. The value of this record is enhanced by the inclusion of a Resolution of the Government of India dated February 21, 1913, summarising its educational policy, and forming a masterly exposition of its aims. A member of the Council of the Government of India has now been appointed with special charge of education, and the first incumbent of the post is Sir Harcourt Butler, who is to be congratulated on this very able summary.
