Abstract
IN the first of these two volumes Mr. Heath has collected and amplified several articles which previously appeared in Knowledge, and in which he made a satisfactory attempt to bring home to the understanding of “the man in the street” the knowledge so far available as the result of the determinations of stellar parallaxes. It is, truly, as the subtitle indicates, a “road-book” in which the contours, or perhaps one should say the depths, as well as the directions, are plainly shown.
