Abstract
THE newest volume of this encyclopaedia again bears evidence of careful revision and the addition of new articles. Events that have occurred within the last few months are mentioned. Many of the longer articles are admirable summaries and should prove invaluable for quick and easy reference. There are eight new coloured maps as well as many text illustrations and diagrams.
