“Mr Gibson’s skill is most admirable when we consider that it is allied to poetic feeling of the utmost simplicity and depth.”

“Mr Gibson’s latest book will not lessen his reputation as a poet, but it can scarcely add to it. For while the virtues of style and sincerity which his earlier poetry has taught us to expect, are in equal evidence here, the vices which we trusted were only incidents of his growth remain in an exaggerated condition.”

GILBRETH, FRANK BUNKER, and GILBRETH, LILLIAN EVELYN (MOLLER) (MRS FRANK BUNKER GILBRETH). Motion study for the handicapped. (Efficiency books) il *$4 Dutton 658.7
(Eng ed 20–6759)
“The authors maintain that there is ‘one best way’ in every industrial process, and that way can best be determined by a study of the methods of experts as revealed by motion pictures so taken as to show the path of the motion and the time required. The best way of performing an operation having been determined, the authors maintain that the cripple should be taught that method. Their enthusiastic claim is, ‘We have worked out in the laboratory the methods by which suitable occupations for cripples of any type may be determined and also methods by which training in these occupations may be transferred to the crippled learner.’ Much is said about the problem of the crippled soldier, for most of the chapters of the book were papers read before meetings of engineers in 1917 and 1918 when that subject was receiving much attention.”—Survey
