 By Oswald H. Latier, M.A., Senior Science Ma.>ter at Charier- 

 house. Crown 8vo. ^s. net. 



Journal of Education. We are ver}' favourably impressed by Mr 

 Latter's book, and the author is to be congratulated on having produced 

 an excellent work... .Much praise is due to the illustrations and to the 

 careful way in which the lettering has been done. We can confidently 

 recommend the book to teachers of science. 



X'atiire. An excellent book, written by a man who is equally in his 

 element whether he writes as an outdoor naturalist or as a laboratory 

 student. This combination is by no means a common one, and it is just 

 the combination that is wanted for a book of this kind....AUc^ether the 

 book is an admirable one. 



Athenczu7)i. A book that may be judiciously placed in the hands of 

 any boy who evinces a reasonable interest in the animal life around him. 



The Classification of Flowering Plants. By Alfred 



Barton Rendle, M.A. (Cantab.), D.Sc. (Lond.), F.L.S., Assistant

sperms and Monocotyledons. Demy 8vo. With 187 illustrations.

Pall Mall Gazette. The information throughout is clearly the outcome 



of deep thought, keen observation, and years of original study. Dr Rendle 



has the happy knack of hitting upon, and discussing with exactitude and 



clearness, the very difficulties which beset the thoughtful student, as though 



he himself were constantly confronted by the ever recurring "Why" of the 



anxious learner. 



Gardener's Chronicle. Numerous illustrations and an excellent index 

 add to the value of the work. We heartily congratulate the author on the 

 partial accomplishment of a difficult and laborious task. The part before 

 us does but whet our appetite for what is to follow. 



Athencetnn. The first instalment of a text book which will well 

 represent the state of our knowledge in the early years of the century. 

 In the present volume the Gymnosperms and the .Vlonocotyledons alone 

 are dealt with ; but they are treated with such excellent co-ordination of 

 detail and such clear-headed sense of proportion, tliat we eagerly await 

 the publication of the next instalment. 



The Vertebrate Skeleton. By Sidney H. Reynolds, 



M-A. Crown Svo. With iio Illustrations. 121. dd. 



The Origin and Influence of the Thorough-bred 



Horse. By W. RiDGEViAV, M.A., F.B. .\., Disney Profe^sor of 

 Archseolog)" and Fellow of Gonville and Caius College. With 

 numerous Illustrations. Demy Svo. 11s. bd. net. 



WestmiNster Gazette. There has never been a more learned contribution 

 to equine literature than Professor Ridgeway's comprehensive and exhaustive 

 book. 



Spectator. It would be difficult for Professor Ridgeway to write a book 

 which did not contain at least one wholly novel thesis, and the present work 

 is no exception to his practice. It is also an encyclopaedia of information 

 on the history of the Equidae, collected from every source, from post- 

 Pleiocene deposits to modern sporting newspapers. No detail escapes the 

 author's industry, ai^d...the result is a monument of sound learning, unique 

 of its kind.
