LEMENTS OF GEOLOGY. A Text-Book for 

 Colleges and for the General Reader. With upward of 90c 

 Illustrations. New and enlarged edition. 8vo. Cloth, $4.00. 



" Besides preparing a comprehensive text-book, suited to present demands, Professoi 

 Le Conte has given us a volume of great value as an exposition of the subject, thor< 

 oughly up to date. The examples and applications of the work are almost 2ntirely 

 derived from this country, so that it may be properly considered an American geology. 

 We can commend this work without qualification to all who desire an intelligent ac- 

 quaintance with geological science, as fresh, lucid, full, and authentic, the result of 

 devoted study and of long experience in teaching." — Popular Science Monthly. 



INVOLUTION AND ITS RELATION TO RE- 

 -L-^ LIGIOUS THOUGHT. With numerous Illustrations. New 

 and enlarged edition. i2mo. Cloth, $1.50. 



"The questions sug^este by this title must weigh with more or less persistence on 

 the mind of every intelligent and liberal thinker. . . . The man who can keep his sci- 

 ence and his religion in two boxes, either of which may be opened separately, is to be 

 congratulated. Many of us can not, and his peace of miud we can not attain. There- 

 fore every contribution toward a means of clearer vision is most welcome, above all 

 when it comes from one who knows the ground on which he stands, and has conquered 

 his right to be there. . . . Professor Le Conte is a man in whom reverence and im- 

 agination have not become desiccated by a scientific atmosphere, but flourish, in due 

 subordination and control, to embellish and vivify his writings. Those who know them 

 have come to expect a peculiar alertness of mind and freshness of method in any new 

 work by this author, whether his conclusions be such as they are ready to receive or 

 not. " — The Nation. 



" Professor Le Conte is a devout Christian believer ; he is also a radical evolution- 

 ist. . . . There is no better book than this for a student to read in order to get a broad 

 and general view of the theory of evolution and the evidence by which it is supported." 

 — Christian Union.

"We commend the book cordially to the regard of all who are interested in what- 

 ever pertains to the discussion of these grave questions, and especially to those who 

 desire to examine closely the strong foundations on which the Christian faith is reared.' 

 -"Boston Journal. 



C* IGHT ' : An Exposition of the Principles of Monoc 

 ^^ ular and Binocular Vision. With Illustrations. i2mo. Cloth, 



$1.50. 



"Professor Le Conte has long been known as an original investigator in this de- 

 partment; all that he gives us is treated with a master hand. It is pleasant to find an 

 American book that can rank with the very best of foreign books on this subject. "-
