Abstract
THE work before us, as is evident from its title, is an atlas, and will be of interest rather on account of its plates, which are very beautiful, than of its letterpress; this latter, however, which is situated at the end of the book, covers more than a hundred pages, and is provided with a bibliography and an index of authors and subjects. The text is sub-divided into an introduction and two parts. The introduction deals with methods of collection and examination, &. Part i. is devoted to unorganised, Part ii. to organised sediments. The editor has added considerably to the original text, his remarks being indicated by parentheses: he occasionally differs with Dr. Riedel concerning fact. The large additions to the text made by the editor have rather altered the character of the work, and have probably increased the sphere of its usefulness.
