Abstract
IT is a difficult task, nowadays, to write a text-book of botany, because the subject has become so large as to render it impossible to treat even the more important sections of it within reasonable limits of space. Any attempt of this kind must be judged on the basis laid down by the authors, and from this point of view we think the new Chicago text-book has scored a distinct success.
A Text-Book of Botany for Colleges and Universities.
By Prof. J. M. Coulten Prof. C. R. Barnes Prof. H. C. Cowles. Vol. i., Morphology and Physiology. Pp. viii + 484 + xii. (New York: American Book Co., 1910.) Price 2 dollars.
