    THE CONTEMPORARY SCIENCE SERIES. Edited by HAVELOCK ELLIS. NEW VOLUMES. Crown 8vo, Cloth, Price 0s. A STUDY OF RECENT EARTHQUAKES. By CHARLES DAVISON, D.Sc., F.G.S., Author of “The Hereford Earthquake of December 17th, 1896.” Th/3 aim of the author, who is a leading authority on this subject, is to provide a series of studies of a few earthquakes that have been investigated recently by scientific methods—such as the Neapolitan earthquake of 1857, the lscliian earthquakes of 1881 and 1883, the Charleston earthquake of 1886, the Riviera earthquake of 1887, the Japanese earthquake of 1891, the Hereford earthquake of 1896, the Indian earthquake of 1897, etc. Crown 8vo, Cloth, Price 6s. MORALS: Their Psycho - Sociological Bases. Translated from the French of Duprat’s La Morale, By W. J. GREENSTREET, M.A., Headmaster of Marling School. The field of psychological research has been widened by the triple alliance of psychology, physiology1, and sociology—an alliance at once of the most intimate and fundamental nature, and productive of far-reaching results. It need, therefore, occasion no surprise that among the volumes of a scientific series is to be found a treatise dealing with ethical questions. Recent works on ethics have not been numerous, and the writers seem more anxious to soar into the realm of lofty thought than to lay the foundations of work that will bo positive and lasting. It would seem that the time has come for a system of ethics less ambitious in its aims, more restricted in its scope, and based on a more rigorous method of treatment. Crown 8vo, Cloth, Price 6s. THE MAKING OF CITIZENS: A Study in Comparative Education. By R. E. HUGHES, M.A., B.Sc., Author of “Schools at Horae and Abroad.” It is instructive and interesting to have a complete and comprehensive account of both our own and foreign systems of education, based upon an exhaustive study of authoritative and official data. Mr. Hughes has set him- self the task of showing in detail and by a series of pictures, so to speak, what the four leading nations of the world—England, France, Germany, and America—are doing in the way of manufacturing citizens. The primary and secondary systems are described in detail, and the social problems of national education are described and diagnosed. Crown 8vo, Cloth, Price 6s. With 12 Portraits.
