Abstract
THE last few decades have seen the rise of micropalæontology to a position of considerable importance in geology, particularly in the quest for oil. The publication of Dr. Glaessner's book is therefore a welcome event; and its production in this handsome form during the recent World War reflects credit upon those responsible for its get-up.
Principles of Micropalæontology
