Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616 -- Criticism and interpretation
35. _LANDMARKS IN FRENCH LITERATURE_
By G. L. STRACHEY. "Short handbooks on great subjects are among the most
difficult tasks that a man of letters can undertake, and Mr Strachey is
to be congratulated on his courage and success. It is difficult to
imagine how a better account of French Literature could be given in two
hundred and fifty small pages than he has given here."--_The Times._
39. _ARCHITECTURE_
By Prof. W. R. LETHABY. (Over forty Illustrations.) "Popular guide-books

exception."--_Building News._ "Delightfully bright reading."--_Christian
World._

By Dr MARION NEWBIGIN. (Illustrated.) "Geography, again: what a dull,
tedious study that was wont to be!... But Miss Marion Newbigin invests

stock of geography as a fairy-book of science."--_Daily Telegraph._
9. _THE EVOLUTION OF PLANTS_
By Dr D. H. SCOTT, M.A., F.R.S., late Hon. Keeper of the Jodrell

fascinating and easy."--_Gardeners' Chronicle._
17. _HEALTH AND DISEASE_
By W. LESLIE MACKENZIE, M.D., Local Government Board, Edinburgh. "The

attractive exponent than Dr Mackenzie. He adds to a thorough grasp of
the problems an illuminating style, and an arresting manner of treating
a subject often dull and sometimes unsavoury."--_Economist._
18. _INTRODUCTION TO MATHEMATICS_
By A. N. WHITHEAD, Sc.D., F.R.S. (With Diagrams.) "Mr Whitehead has
discharged with conspicuous success the task he is so exceptionally
qualified to undertake. For he is one of our great authorities upon the
foundations of the science, and has the breadth of view which is so
requisite in presenting to the reader its aims. His exposition is clear
and striking."--_Westminster Gazette._
