Abstract
THE new edition of the English version of the “Bonn Text-book” is based on the fifth German edition. It marks an improvement on its predecessor, and is brought well up-to-date as regards the text, whilst we also note an improvement in the figures, some of the older illustrations having been omitted or replaced by better ones. The coloured representations, however, do not strike us as very useful, and we would have willingly seen them disappear.
