Abstract
THIS book contains two out of the four lectures delivered by Mr. Wyndham Hulme as Sandars reader in bibliography at the University of Cambridge in May 1922, and forms a notable contribution to the science of bibliography. Mr. Hulme's thesis is the need of co-operative action in bibliography, and in these lectures he urges as an example of this need the importance of bibliographical data as an aid to the illustration and interpretation of changes in the progress of modern civilisation.
