"Mr Page, whose admirable text-books of geology have already secured him

to his reputation by the present sketch, as he modestly terms it, of the
Life-System, or gradual evolution of the vitality of our globe. In no
manual that we are aware of have the facts and phenomena of biology been
presented in at once so systematic and succinct a form, the successive
manifestations of life on the earth set forth in so clear an order, or
traced so vividly from the earliest organisms deep-buried in its
stratified crust, to the familiar forms that now adorn and people its
surface."--_Literary Gazette._
