By SYDNEY J. HICKSON, D.Sc., F.R.S., Professor of 

 Zoology in the Owen's College, Manchester. 42 Illustns. 



" Prof. Hickson is assuredly to be congratulated on the very able 

 manner in which he has acquitted himself of his task. In the course 

 of eight chapters, written in pleasant and unaffected style, he gives a 

 fairly complete sketch of the vertebrate and invertebrate fauna associ- 

 ated with different marine regions, the surface, the shallow water, and 

 the depths." Saturday Rei'iew. 



" Such books as these lay the reader under a deep obligation to 

 writers of Dr Hickson's eminence in the scientific world." Spectator,

THE STORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY. 



By A. T. STORY. With Illustrations. 



"An interesting popular sketch of a subject the more common 

 hooks about which are generally of a purely technical character, de- 

 signed to inform amateurs. Mr Story does not profess to give instruc- 

 tions in the art ; but his history of its progress, his description of the 

 various forms of apparatus and the various processes, and his state- 

 ments of the relation between photography and the finer arts cannot 

 but impart an intelligent interest in this versatile handmaiden of 

 science. " Scotsman.
