ABSTRACT THIS booklet of 152 pages small octavo is a guide to a 142 hours' elementary laboratory course. The Fern and Earthworm are first dealt with, and then a series of animal and
vegetable forms, in ascending order determined by convenience, the whole culminating in a small modicum of comparative embryology. Directions for manipulation are throughout rendered in
italics. Of the making of books there is no end, but a. pity 'tis that of the making of books such as this should be a beginning! The whole is but a set of rough laboratory notes of the
time-table order, such as are everywhere used under prevailing custom and often destroyed when odone with. They are of the kind justified only by the necessity for local adaptation of class
work; but of this there is here no evidence, and we consequently regard their publication in book-form as superfluous. Laboratory Directions in General Biology. By Harriet Randolph,
Demonstrator in Biology and Reader in Botany, Bryn Mawr College. (New York: H. Holt and Co., 1897.) Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription
