Works op Sir John Lubbock, Bart. 



THE ORIGIN OF CIVILIZATION AND THE 

 PRIMITIVE CONDITION OF MAN, Men- 

 tal and Social Condition of Savages. 



Fourth edition, with numerous Additions. With Illustrations. 8to. 

 Cloth, $5.00. 



" The first edition of this work was pnhlishetl In the year 1870. The work 

 has be^n twice revised for the press in the interval, and now appears in ite 

 fonrtb edition erUarged to the extent cf nearly two hundrecl pages, inclading a fall 

 index." 



" This interesting work — for it is intensely so in its aim, scope, and the abil- 

 ity of its author— treats of what the scientists denominate anthropology, or the 

 natural history of the human species ; the complete science of man, body and 

 soul, inclading sex, temperament, race, civilization, etc"— Providence Frees. 



PREHISTORIC TIMES, as illustrated by An- 

 cient Remains and the Manners and Cus- 

 toms of Modern Savages. 



Illustrated. Entirely new revised edition. 8vo. Cloth, |5.00. 



The book ranks among the noblest works of the interesting and important 

 class to which it belongs. As a resume of onr present knowledge of prehistoric 

 man, it leaves nothing to be desired. It is not only a good book of reference, bat 

 the best on the subject. 



" This is, perhaps, the best summary of evidence now in our possession con- 

 cerning the general character of prehistoric times. The Bronze Age, The Stone 

 Age, The Tamuli, The Lake Inhabitants of Switzerland, The Shell Monnds. The 

 Cave Man, and The Antiquity of Man, are the titles of the most important chap- 

 ters."— i>r. C, K. Adamses Manual of Bistoricat Literature. 



ANTS, BEES, AND WASPS. 



A Record of Observations on the Habits of the Social Hymenoptera. 

 With Colored Plates. 12mo. Cloth, $2.00. 



" This volume contains the record of various experiments made with ants, 

 bees, and wasps during the last ten years, with a view to test their mental con- 

 dition and powers of sense. The principal point in which Sir John^s mode of 

 experiment differs from those of Huber, Forel, McCook, and others, is that he 

 has carefully watched and marked particular insects, and has had their nests 

 under observation for long periods — one of his ants^ nests having been under 

 constant inspection ever smce 1874. His observations are made principally upon 

 ants, because they show more power and flexibility of mind ; and the value of his 

 studies is that they belong to the department of original research." 



" We have no hesitation in saying that the author lias presented us with the 

 most valuable series of observations on a special subject that has ever been pro- 

 duced, charmingly written, full of logical deductions, and, when we consider his 

 multitudinous engagements, a remarkable illustration of economy of time. As a 

 contribation to insect psychology, it will be long before this book finds a par- 

 allel."— Zonttore MheruBum.
