Although included in the series of Cambridge Natural Science Manuals, and therefore designed chiefly for students of biology, Mr Beddard deals with his subject in a clear and graphic way that should commend his book to the general reader interested in the question. His style, while never lacking dignity, avoids the dulness which too often accompanies that virtue.
