Abstract
IN this work, which has just been added to the “Bibliothèque Scientifique Internationale,” Prof. Meunier has aimed at supplying a complete and practical series of experimental illustrations of as many different geological phenomena as possible — in this respect going even farther than did the late M. Daubrée in his classical “Études Synthétiques de Géologie Expérimentale.” The work is founded on a course of lectures given in Natural History Museum of Paris in 1898; and in the Geological Gallery of the Museum in the Jardin desPlantes may be seen the actual apparatus, designed by the author and. others, for carrying on the experiments described in these pages.
