HAD DON, M.A., M. R. I. A.. Professor of Zoology, Royal College 0/ Science, Dublin. In Royal Svo, with rgo Itlustrations. iSs. EMBRYOLOGY (An Introduction to). For -the use of Students. The object of the Author in preparing this book has been, to give a brief connected account of the j'kincii'AI. organs, merely mentioning those structures and phenomena which may be regarded as o{ secondary importance. Hence, the work is admirably adapted for those beginning the difficult study of Embryology. The more advanced Sections are printed in smaller type, and most of the Illustrations have been drawn so as to admit of their Ijeing coloured uniformly throughout by the Student himself. A uniform system of colouration will be found to be of great assistance to the inemory. An excellent risnini of recent research, well adapted for self-study, . . . gives remarkably good accounts (including all recent work) of the develop- ment ot the heart and other organs. . . . The book is handsomely got up.— The Lancet. Prof. Haddon has the real scientific spirit for work of this kind- . . . The development of the various organs ably demonstrated . . . forms a handsome volume.—British Medical Journal.
