MARGARETTA BURNET
Teacher of Zoölogy, Woodward High School, Cincinnati, O.
Cloth, 12mo, 216 pages. Illustrated. Price. 75cents
This new text-book on Zoölogy is intended for classes in High Schools, Academies, and other Secondary Schools. While sufficiently elementary for beginners in the study it is full and comprehensive enough for students pursuing a regular course in the Natural Sciences. It has been prepared by a practical teacher, and is the direct result of school-room experience, field observation and laboratory practice.
The design of the book is to give a good general knowledge of the subject of Zoölogy, to cultivate an interest in nature study, and to encourage the pupil to observe and to compare for himself and then to arrange and classify his knowledge. Only typical or principal forms are described, and in their description only such technical terms are used as are necessary, and these are carefully defined.
Each subject is fully illustrated, the illustrations being selected and arranged to aid the pupil in understanding the structure of each form.
Copies of Burnet's School Zoölogy will be sent prepaid to any address, on receipt of the price, by the Publishers:
