Abstract
AT a time when constitutions are in process of adoption for so many unfamiliar areas on the map, it seems singularly appropriate that some attention should be diverted from such modern problems as relativity and Bolshevism to the older struggles and the ideas to which they gave rise. An excellent opportunity is provided by the three books under notice.
