Abstract
THE first volume of this book was reviewed in NATURE some three years ago (NATURE, March 4, 1933, p. 316). This second volume consists of an equally comprehensive survey of vegetables, including mushrooms, roots and tubers, leaves and stems, flowers, fruit and seeds (other than those already covered by vol. 1 in the sections on cereals and nuts). The two volumes together make an extremely useful survey of almost the whole of vegetable food sources.
