 " Besides preparing a comprehensive text-book suited to present de- 

 mands, Professor Le Conte has given us a volume of great value as an 

 exposition of the subject, thoroughly up to date. The examples and appli- 

 cations of the work are almost entirely 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 acquaintance 

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

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

 Monthly. 



VOLUTION AND ITS RELATION TO RE- 

 LIGIOUS THOUGHT. With numerous Illustrations. 

 New and enlarged edition, i2mo. Cloth, $1.50. 



"The questions suggested 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 science and his relii^ion in two boxes, either of which 

 may be opened separately, is to be congratulated. Many of us can not, and 

 his peace of mind we can not attain. Therefore 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 imagination 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 autlior, whether 

 his conclusions be such as they are ready to receive or not." — 1 he Islation, 



JDELIGION AND SCIENCE. A Series of Sunday 

 ■^ ^ Lectures on the Relation of Natural and Revealed Re-

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

 cially to those wlio desire to examine closely the strong foundations on 

 which the Christian faith is reared." — Boston Journal.

and Binocular Vision. With Illustrations. lamo. Cloth,

"Professor Le Conte has long been known as an original investigator 

 in this department; 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." — The Nation.
