Abstract
THE fourth edition of Prof. Supan's text-book was published in 1908, and the call for a new issue shows that it maintains its place as one of the standard international authorities on physical geography. The new edition is mainly a reprint of its predecessor, but it has been carefully revised, and has been increased by sixty pages and eighteen additional figures. Amongst other changes is a new morphological map of the world, which shows the increasing influence of the views of Prof. Suess. The classification of the lands is simpler than that of the map which it has replaced.
