It is ten years since this book was first published, and the author has now revised it throughout and brought it up to date. On account of the activity with which the study of the criminal has been carried on during recent years, it has been found necessary to enlarge, and in some cases re-write, nearly every chapter in the book. A great deal of new material has thus been added. There are also over fifty new illustrations, mostly original. FOURTH EDITION., COMPLETELY REVISED. Crown Svo, Cloth, Price 6s. With numerous Illustrations. THE EVOLUTION OF SEX. By Professors PATRICK GEDDES and J. A. THOMPSON. In this edition the volume has been brought up to date, the altered state of biological opinion since 1889 has been taken due account of, especially the modifications of Weismann’s position, the number of refer- ences increased, sundry criticisms accepted, but the general thesis remains the same.

W. de TUNZELMANN, B.Sc., Late Professor of Natural Philosophy, H.M.S. “ Britannia.” This volume is addressed primarily to readers who have no previous knowledge of the subject, but who wish to know something of what Electricity has been made to do for us, and of how it has been made to do it.
