Abstract
THE research work published from time to time by the staff of the Agricultural Research Institute at Pusa has shown a high standard, which is well maintained by this pioneer volume on the fungous diseases of field and plantation crops of India and the East, written by Mr. E. J. Butler, Imperial mycologist for India. When we realise what a dull book might have been compiled in the old “museum catalogue” manner, we gratefully extend a warm welcome to this volume, through which the spirit of research breathes so strongly.
