Abstract
THE new edition of Dr. Haldane's little work is substantially the same, so far as subject-matter is concerned, as the first edition, which was reviewed in NATURE for October 22, 1914. It is in the fourth lecture, on personality, that the main changes have been made. The whole chapter has been recast, and some additional matter inserted with the object of bringing home to the reader more certainly the meaning of this admittedly difficult subject.
