Abstract
THIS well-known book on the cryptogamic plants needs no introduction and the fact that it is now in its tenth edition speaks well for its success. This edition has been re-edited by Mr. F. T. Brooks, with the result that the new types Peronospora, Saccharomyces and Euglena, have been added. All three additions are important, representing a plant disease, a simple fungus of great economic importance, and a flagellate. Cladothrix has been omitted. The results of recent researches in Algae and Fungi have been incorporated so far as is possible into the text. Written by Dr. Scott, and now revised with the advice and help of well-known specialists, the new edition of this book will continue to be an authoritative introduction to the subject.
