XI. THE SCIENCE OF FAIRY TALES. By E. SIDNEY HARTLAND. 3s. 6d.

ethnography."--_Nature._
XIII. THE EVOLUTION OF MARRIAGE. By Professor LETOURNEAU. 3s. 6d.
"Among the distinguished French students of sociology, Professor
Letourneau has long stood in the first rank. He approaches the great study
of man free from bias and shy of generalisations. To collect, scrutinise,
and appraise facts is his chief business. In the volume before us he shows
these qualities in an admirable degree."--_Science._

doubtful whether among all the ardent evolutionists who have had their say
on the moral and the educational question any one has carried forward the
new doctrine so boldly to its extreme logical consequence."--Professor
SULLY in _Mind_.

and interpreted his facts with considerable judgment and
learning."--_Westminster Review._

earthquakes."--_Nature._
XIX. PUBLIC HEALTH. By Dr. J. F. J. SYKES. With numerous Illustrations.

statistics, but it takes up essential points in evolution, environment,

health."--_Lancet._
