Abstract
SIR ARCHIBALD GEIKIE'S class-book of geology is likely to be one of those which will survive in the struggle for existence among the numerous handbooks of the subject which have been lately issued. There are many ways of accounting for the frequent appearance of new text-books. One of them, though perhaps not the principal one, is to be found in the varied requirements of pupils and teachers, and when an elementary work has run to a fourth edition, as in this case, we may fairly assume that it has met a want.
Class Book of Geology.
By Sir Archibald Geikie. Fourth edition. Pp. xxi + 454. (London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1902.) Price 5s.
