Seligman, Edwin Robert Anderson. Principles of economics; with special reference to American conditions. 2d ed. *$2.25. Longmans.
Descriptive note in Annual, 1906.
“In the present reviewer’s opinion, Professor Seligman’s volume is likely to prove of more value to the teacher of economics than to the beginner in the subject for whose benefit primarily it was written. This is not because of any lack of clearness or other defects of style. It is due rather to the fact that the author has attempted to cover too much ground and to introduce the student to too great a variety of subjects.” M. B. Hammond.

Selleck, Willard Chamberlain. New appreciation of the Bible: a study of the spiritual outcome of Biblical criticism. *$1.50. Univ. of Chicago press.
7–11195.
An attempt to popularize some of the results of scholarship. It aims to do three things: first, to state, briefly but clearly and accurately the principal conclusions of modern learning regarding the Bible; second, to show the enhanced values, ethical and religious, which the Bible exhibits thru the new views of its nature thus developed, and lastly, to point out practical ways in which it may be used in consonance with such conclusions and such views.
“A most useful and valuable book.”
