■■' No one with any pretensions to science should be with- 

 out Owen's Palaeontology." — Lancet. 



" The Prince of Palaeontologists has here presented us with 

 a most comprehensive survey of the characters, succession, geo- 

 logical position, and geogi'aphical distribution, of the various 

 forms of life that have passed away." — Medical Times and 

 Gazette. 



"The volume cannot fail to be acceptable, both to the 

 palaeontologist and to the general reader. The former will 

 welcome it as quite the best and most reliable handbook of 

 his science that has yet appeared, and the latter will find in 

 it a concise but comprehensive summary of the results as yet 

 attained in this most interesting branch of physical investiga- 

 tion." — LiTERAEY Gazette.
