Abstract
THE study of British Carboniferous plants will be stimulated and advanced by Dr. R. Crookall's book. Dr. Crookall is palæobotanist to the Geological Survey of Great Britain and is also in charge of the splendid collection of Palæozoic plants made by the late Dr. R. Kidston; he is therefore in a position to speak with authority on Carboniferous plants. The book, however, is not written primarily for the specialist or the botanist, and will recommend itself as an introduction to the subject to geologists who have had no botanical training, to amateurs, and to field naturalists. It will also be of value as a book of reference for university students in connexion with courses on the Pteridophyta and Gymnosperms.
