An Asterisk (*) before the price indicates those books sold at a limited discount and commonly known as net books. Books subject to the rules of the American Publishers’ Association are marked by a double asterisk (**) when the bookseller is required to maintain the list price; by a dagger (†) when the maximum discount is fixed at 20 and 10 per cent, as is allowable in the case of fiction.

The plus and minus signs preceding the names of the magazines indicate the degree of favor or disfavor of the entire review.

In the reference to a magazine, the first number refers to the volume, the next to the page and the letters to the date.

No book previously noticed has its descriptive note reprinted. Books noticed for the first time this month have descriptive note which is set off from excerpts by a dash.
