ATHENy^UJM. — "All who take a serious interest in the advance of ichthyology 

 will find this a fascinating book." 



NATURE NOTES. — "It is a thoroughly scholarly work for students, amply sus- 

 taining the reputation of an ancient university as being in the van of scientific progress." 



]\lR. F. G. AFLALO in COUNTRY LIEE. — ^'lhQ whole volume impresses me 

 as equal to any of its predecessors, and the editors will, on the completion of the series, 

 have the satisfaction of contemplating a work with which, for thoroughness and interest, 

 no other of recent appearance can compare." 



NATURE. — "Both authors and editors alike are to be congratulated on having 

 produced a work of sterling merit." 



VOL. VIII. AMPHIBIA & REPTILES 



By HANS GADOW, M.A., F.R.S. 



Strickland Curator in the University of Cambridge. 



NATURE. — "In concluding the review we would express the opinion that by this 

 handsome volume a very important addition to science has been made ; that the beautiful 

 illustrations, together with the clear and charming accounts of the life-histories which it 

 contains, will do much to popularise the study of a rather neglected section of zoology ; and 

 that lovers of Reptiles, of which there are more than one generally thinks, will feel that the 

 new knowledge imparted to them emanates from one who is thoroughly in sympathy with 

 their enthusiasm." 



FIELD. — " The work is worthy of the series in which it appears, and we cannot give it 

 higher praise." 



SCIENCE GOSSIP. — ' ' More than maintains the high scientific reputation of this series. 

 The herpetologists, or students of the Amphibia and Reptiles, have now a standard work of 

 the highest class." 



LANCET. — "An account of both Amphibia and Reptiles which should satisfy the 

 expert, and at the same time entertain the reader who is merely interested in the tit-bits of 

 natural history. . . . A book full of accurate information and pleasant reading. " 



MORNING POST. — "A delightful as well as a serviceable book. . . . Herein perhaps 

 lies the great charm and merit of Dr. Gadow's book, that, while satisfying all the inquiries 

 of the student, it is also in great part written for the ordinary intelligence, and the naturalist 

 in the crowd may, while necessarily gliding over distressing technicalities, find in its pages 

 many hours of profitable and entertaining study of the habits of the classes under notice."
