Professor Edward Eorbes, P.B.S. 
Literary Papers on Scientijic Subjects. 
By the late Professor Edward Forbes, F.R.S., Selected from his 
Writings in the ‘Literary Gazette/ With a Portrait and Memoir. 
Small 8vo, price 6^. 
“This reprint of reviews forms a charming hook of miscellaneous essays. The 
criticism is genial, sensible, comprehensive, and compact. It is not common to find 
eminent scientific men graceful, easy, and piquant litteratewrs ; but whenever such a ■* 
union of claims to public favour is manifested, it should meet with honour due. But, 
besides being a scientific professor, a critic, and litterateur, the late Edward Forbes V 
was before aU things a man — genial, sympathetic, brave and true — a thorough good 
fellow, as good a fellow as he was a naturalist. The reader cannot do better than 
possess himself of this amusing and instructive volume, if he have a hking for science 
without solemnity, criticism without ill-nature, and with knowledge of the subject; ^ 
pleasant talk with a definite result, and a sense of the comic without the vulgar error 
of turning aU things to a jest.” Globe. jj
