Athenæum. Mr Duckworth has managed to produce in his “Morphology and Anthropology" just such a text-book as students have long been asking for.... It is no easy task to have undertaken such a work and the author is to be congratulated on the success which has attended his efforts.

Lectures on the History of Physiology during the Sixteenth, Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries. By Sir M. Foster, K.C.B., M.D., D.C.L. Demy 8vo. With a frontispiece. 9s.
Nature. There is no more fascinating chapter in the history of science than that which deals with physiology, but a concise and at the same time compendious account of the early history of the subject has never before been presented to the English reader. Physiologists therefore owe a debt of gratitude to Sir Michael Foster for supplying a want which was widely felt.... No higher praise can be given to the book than to say that it is worthy of the reputation of its author.
