Atkinson’s College Botany 
By George F. Atkinson, Professor of Botany in 
Cornell University. xvi-+ 737 pp. 8vo. Illus- 
trated. $2.00 net. 
This is greatly elaborated from the author’s earlier ELEMENTARY Borany. 
In the chapters on physiology much new matter has been incorporated, 
especially on the subjects of nutrition and digestion. The morphology 
of fertilization in the gymnosperms and angiosperms has been thoroughly 
rewritten. The greatest change, however, is in the complete reorganization, 
rewriting and elaboration of the division dealing with ecology, which has 
been made possible by recent studies, so that the subject can be presented 
in a more apne and coherent form.
