Abstract
DR. KENNETH SMITH is to be congratulated heartily on producing a succinct, clear, readable and excellently illustrated account of the present state of knowledge concerning the plant viruses. In view of his many other activities the achievement is a remarkable one. The book will be of the greatest service not only to virus workers, but even more so to those in the related fields of botany, bacteriology and agriculture, to whom, for the first time, it presents a coherent account of the subject free from the minutiæ of technical papers.
