Abstract
“REPETITORIUM” inevitably suggests a cram-book, and in his preface the author humorously describes how he was brought to write this work especially to help the young student of medicine or of agriculture who wants to ‘get up’ zoology for his examination in the least possible time. But if the published outcome of Prof. Stempell's difficult undertaking is any true index of the extent and diversity of the zoological knowledge required from the German student at this stage in his education, then indeed the English universities should look to some revision of their teaching in the elementary grades.
