Abstract
THIS book is a worthy addition to the ABC series, and Prof. Yonge is to be congratulated on being so successful in what was undoubtedly a difficult task. Within recent years, biology has come much to the fore, not only in relation to teaching in the schools, but also as a subject of great interest to the adult public. As might be expected, many books on biology have appeared, and the subject treated from different points of view according to whether the author had in mind school instruction at various stages, or the intelligent and inquiring adult. Of these two varieties, the latter probably presents the more difficult problem, the successful solution of which really requires a master hand.
