Abstract
THE author is to be congratulated on having brought to completion in the present volume a full and exhaustive study of existing knowledge relating to tides and tidal phenomena, previous instalments of which have appeared in similar form from time to time since 1894. The subject-matter dealt with is of a miscellaneous character, summarising those parts of the subject which could not be previously introduced without undue diversions.
