Abstract
THE editor states that the great majority of the titles in this “Jahresbericht” are taken from 1328 periodicals placed at his disposal by the publisher. The titles, each with proper bibliographical data, are arranged in sixteen sections, among which are methods, physical and chemical basis of vital processes, cytology and histology, morphology, metabolism, hormones, physiology of reproduction and development, heredity, ecology and systematics. The great majority of the titles relate to papers on animals. The index of authors and the alphabetical list of the sections of the work facilitate the rapid finding of the references to any author or subject. Some of the 7600 titles are repeated under different sections, so that the total number of titles printed is 11,500. A statistical analysis of the subjects dealt with is appended, which brings out the preponderance of works on comparative physiology (including the chemical and physical basis).
