Abstract
THESE two books, bound in cloth and convenient for the pocket, are members of Dr. Paul Herre's series entitled “Wissenschaft und Bildung.” They are printed in the older German type, presumably to give them a popular and untechnical aspect; and their cheapness prevents their half-tone illustrations from being more than suggestive. But the text is by no means of the “nature-study” order, or merely intended to lead a young reader on to better things; it is rather a summary of the results of a wide range of specialised research.
