Spectator.—“We welcome it as a contribution of value to an important question.”
Daily News.—“Mr. Crotch wields a pretty pen and draws his pictures of bad housing in settings of rural loveliness vividly and with a nice appreciation of the appalling contrasts. His plea ... is unanswerable.”
The Place of Compensation in Temperance Reform.
By C. P. Sanger, M.A., Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge; Barrister-at-Law. Crown 8vo, cloth, 2s. 6d. net.
Glasgow Herald.—“This little book will be found very useful by those who have become recently interested in the temperance question and are apt to be troubled by rival declamations upon the ethics of compensation.... Mr. Sanger is to be commended for his dispassionate and lucid exposition of a question which prejudice has sadly darkened and confused.”
Economic Review.—“Mr. Sanger has written a timely and instructive little book, which thoroughly deserves its place among the series of Studies in Economics and Political Science.”
Elements of Statistics.
By Arthur L. Bowley, M.A., F.S.S., Lecturer in Statistics at the London School of Economics; Guy Silver Medallist of the Royal Statistical Society. Edited by Prof. W. A. S. Hewins, M.A., Director of the London School of Economics. Demy 8vo, cloth, 342 pp., numerous Diagrams, 10s. 6d. net.
Economic Journal.—“The London School of Economics has, since its foundation, had systematic courses of lectures on the elements of statistics, and the school therefore is entitled to share with Mr. Bowley the congratulations which are due to him for supplying a long-felt want. Without further ado it may be plainly stated that, whatever its shortcomings, this book is the best on the Elements of Statistics written in English, French, German or Italian.”
