Abstract
THE fifth edition of this well-known work is to be especially welcomed in Great Britain, where geologists pay far less attention to the allied sciences than is the case abroad, with the result that we have not yet produced a book dealing with the application of geology to civil engineering problems—a position to be regretted.
