Abstract
AS the author says, the title of this book is non-committal, but almost unreasonably so, for in addition to most exhaustive descriptions of all the commercial varieties, this treatise contains a very complete discussion of the various scientific problems connected with the origin, breeding, and cultivation of what the daily journalist delights in describing as the “comestible tuber.”

By Dr. Redcliffe N. Salaman. Pp. xxii + 378 + 10 plates. (Cambridge: At the University Press, 1926.) 25s. net.
