CRYSTALS. By Dr. A. E. H. Tutton, With numer-

 5S. {Ready Shortly, 



l>t._ Tnlton has been engaged for over twenty years in original 

 investigation in crystallography, and has contributed about furry 

 memoirs on the subject to the Philosophical Transactions and, Pro- 

 ceedings of the Royal Society, the Journal of the Chemical Society, 

 and the " Zeitschrift fur Kryslallographie." This work on- the 

 isomorphous series of sulphates and selenates of the alkali metals, 

 and on the double sulphrites and selenates of the latter and the heavier 

 metals, is perhaps best known by rt:a-•^on of the important generalisa- 

 tions which were derived from it. and its extreme accuracy .,and 

 delicacy- His name is also familiar in connection with the invention 

 of quite a number of refined instruments for use in crj'stallographic 

 and optical research. Dr Tutton has also become known as a lecturer 

 on the subject of crystals, and the beautiful e.vperiments e.\hibited in 

 his lecture to the British Association at \\'innipeg were much remarked 

 at the time. Practically all these experiments are described, and mo^l 

 of them illustrated, in this book on "Crystals," and the subject of tlie 

 lecture itself is fully dealt with ii. the book. 



THE EVOLUTION OF PURPOSIVE 



LIVING MATTER. By N. C. Macnam.\ra, F.R.C.S. 



Cruvvn sv '. 5S. 

 The object ui tui> uoiK i- to demonstrate that the protoplasm of the 

 simplest unicellular organisms contains elements which direct the 

 movements e.\'cite<l in their living substance by external and internal 

 stimuli into action adapted to promote the well-being of these 

 organisms and of the species to which they belong.- We term the 

 eietnenis which form this kind of matter purposive, and show they 

 are sufficient to effect all the movements necessary to maintain the 

 existence of the simpler classes of beings;" and that -as the living 

 substance of the higher classes of animals becomes adapted to their 

 enviroinnent, and therefore inoie complicated in structure, their 

 purposive elements undergo a corresponding evolution into instiiKtive, 

 and finally in mammals into psychical, matter.
