Abstract
IN this work Mr. Wallace Stewart presents us with another of his excellent text-books on elementary science. Just as his treatment of the subject was concise and clear in his book on heat and light, so here he has followed the same lines, and has placed before the student, especially one who is preparing for the matriculation examination of the London University, a course in magnetism and electricity which will give him a thorough knowledge of the subject and a sound basis on which to make further study. The illustrations and diagrams will be found to form a valuable addition to the text, while the numerous examples at the end of each chapter, if thoroughly worked out, should give a student a good insight into the art of solving problems.
