Abstract
EVERY teacher of zoology thinks that, if only he had time, he would write the ideal text-book for his students and not a few have found the time. The trouble usually is that so small a public outside the particular school concerned considers the work acceptable. But in this most uncertain market Thomson's “Outlines of Zoology” written primarily for students in the Scottish universities, apparently meets some very real demand, for it goes steadily on to its eighth edition and undiminished popularity throughout the country.
Outlines of Zoology.
By Prof. J. Arthur Thomson. Eighth edition, revised. Pp. xxviii + 972. (London: Oxford University Press, 1929.) 21s. net.
