ABSTRACT A SERIES of twenty-one interesting and individually complete articles by as many authors is published in this book. Together they form a symposium on the subject of life at high
altitudes. For the most part it is the mountains of Central Europe (Alps and Pyrenees) and those of the French territories in Africa which form the areas considered. Prof. Martonne has a
useful account of the physical conditions found in high mountains, with special reference to the Alps. Prof. Pittard deals with the history and distribution of Homo alpinus. Fourteen papers
consider aspects of animal life in mountains and include accounts of mammals, birds, insects, and molluscs. Contribution à l'étude du peuplement des Hautes Montagnes. Par P. Allorge R.
