THE END.
THE WALTER SCOTT PRESS, NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE.
The Contemporary Science Series.
Edited by Havelock Ellis.
I. THE EVOLUTION OF SEX. By Prof. PATRICK GEDDES and J. A. THOMSON. With
90 Illustrations. Third Edition. 3s. 6d.
"The authors have brought to the task--as indeed their names
guarantee--a wealth of knowledge, a lucid and attractive method
of treatment, and a rich vein of picturesque
language."--_Nature_.
II. ELECTRICITY IN MODERN LIFE. By G. W. DE TUNZELMANN. With 88
Illustrations. 3s. 6d.
"A clearly-written and connected sketch of what is known about
electricity and magnetism, the more prominent modern
applications, and the principles on which they are
based."--_Saturday Review_.
III. THE ORIGIN OF THE ARYANS. By Dr. ISAAC TAYLOR. Illustrated. Second
Edition. 3s. 6d.
"Canon Taylor is probably the most encyclopaedic all-round
scholar now living. His new volume on the Origin of the Aryans
is a first-rate example of the excellent account to which he
can turn his exceptionally wide and varied information....
Masterly and exhaustive."--_Pall Mall Gazette_.
IV. PHYSIOGNOMY AND EXPRESSION. By P. MANTEGAZZA. Illustrated. Second
Edition. 3s. 6d.
"Brings this highly interesting subject even with the latest
researches.... Professor Mantegazza is a writer full of life
and spirit, and the natural attractiveness of his subject is
not destroyed by his scientific handling of it."--_Literary
World_ (Boston).
V. EVOLUTION AND DISEASE. By J. B. SUTTON, F.R.C.S. With 135
Illustrations. 3s. 6d.
"The book is as interesting as a novel, without sacrifice of
accuracy or system, and is calculated to give an appreciation
of the fundamentals of pathology to the lay reader, while
forming a useful collection of illustrations of disease for
medical reference."--_Journal of Mental Science_.
VI. THE VILLAGE COMMUNITY. By G. L. GOMME. Illustrated. 3s. 6d.
"His book will probably remain for some time the best work of
reference for facts bearing on those traces of the village
community which have not been effaced by conquest,
encroachment, and the heavy hand of Roman law."--_Scottish
Leader_.
VII. THE CRIMINAL. By HAVELOCK ELLIS. Illustrated. Second Edition. 3s.
6d.
"The sociologist, the philosopher, the philanthropist, the
novelist--all, indeed, for whom the study of human nature has
any attraction--will find Mr. Ellis full of interest and
suggestiveness."--_Academy_.
VIII. SANITY AND INSANITY. By Dr. CHARLES MERCIER. Illustrated. 3s. 6d.
"Taken as a whole, it is the brightest book on the physical
side of mental science published in our time."--_Pall Mall
Gazette_.
IX. HYPNOTISM. By Dr. ALBERT MOLL. Fourth Edition, Revised and Enlarged.
3s. 6d.
"Marks a step of some importance in the study of some difficult
physiological and psychological problems which have not yet

England."--_Nature_.
X. MANUAL TRAINING. By Dr. C. M. WOODWARD, Director of the Manual
Training School, St. Louis. Illustrated. 3s. 6d.
"There is no greater authority on the subject than Professor
Woodward."--_Manchester Guardian_.
XI. THE SCIENCE OF FAIRY TALES. By E. SIDNEY HARTLAND. 3s. 6d.
"Mr. Hartland's book will win the sympathy of all earnest
students, both by the knowledge it displays, and by a thorough
love and appreciation of his subject, which is evident
throughout."--_Spectator_.
XII. PRIMITIVE FOLK. By ELIE RECLUS. 3s. 6d.
"An attractive and useful introduction to the study of some
aspects of ethnography."--_Nature_.
XIII. THE EVOLUTION OF MARRIAGE. By Professor LETOURNEAU. Second
Edition. 3s. 6d.
"Among the distinguished French students of sociology,
Professor Letourneau has long stood in the first rank. He
approaches the great study of man free from bias and shy of
generalisations. To collect, scrutinise, and appraise facts is
his chief business. In the volume before us he shows these
qualities in an admirable degree."--_Science_.
XIV. BACTERIA AND THEIR PRODUCTS. By Dr. G. SIMS WOODHEAD. Illustrated.
Third Edition. 3s. 6d.
"An excellent summary of the present state of knowledge of the
subject."--_Lancet_.
XV. EDUCATION AND HEREDITY. By J. M. GUYAU. 3s. 6d.
"It is at once a treatise on sociology, ethics, and pedagogics.
It is doubtful whether among all the ardent evolutionists who
have had their say on the moral and the educational question
any one has carried forward the new doctrine so boldly to its
extreme logical consequence."--Professor SULLY in _Mind_.
XVI. THE MAN OF GENIUS. By Prof. LOMBROSO. Illustrated. 3s. 6d.
"By far the most comprehensive and fascinating collection of
facts and generalisations concerning genius which has yet been
brought together."--_Journal of Mental Science_.

F.Z.S. 6s.
XVIII. PROPERTY: ITS ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT. By CH. LETOURNEAU, General
Secretary to the Anthropological Society, Paris, and Professor in the
School of Anthropology, Paris. 3s. 6d.
"M. Letourneau has read a great deal, and he seems to us to
have selected and interpreted his facts with considerable
judgment and learning."--_Westminster Review_.
XIX. VOLCANOES, PAST AND PRESENT. By Prof. EDWARD HULL, LL.D., F.R.S.
3s. 6d.
"A very readable account of the phenomena of volcanoes and
earthquakes."--_Nature_.
XX. PUBLIC HEALTH. By Dr. J. F. J. SYKES. With numerous Illustrations.
3s. 6d.
"Not by any means a mere compilation or a dry record of details
and statistics, but it takes up essential points in evolution,
environment, prophylaxis, and sanitation bearing upon the
preservation of public health."--_Lancet_.
XXI. MODERN METEOROLOGY. An Account of the Growth and Present Condition
of some Branches of Meteorological Science. By FRANK WALDO, Ph.D.,
Member of the German and Austrian Meteorological Societies, etc.; late

"The present volume is the best on the subject for general use
that we have seen."--_Daily Telegraph_ (London).
XXII. THE GERM-PLASM: A THEORY OF HEREDITY. By AUGUST WEISMANN,
Professor in the University of Freiburg-in-Breisgau. With 24
Illustrations. 6s.
"There has been no work published since Darwin's own books
which has so thoroughly handled the matter treated by him, or
has done so much to place in order and clearness the immense
complexity of the factors of heredity, or, lastly, has brought
to light so many new facts and considerations bearing on the
subject."--_British Medical Journal_.
XXIII. INDUSTRIES OF ANIMALS. By F. HOUSSAY. With numerous
Illustrations. 3s. 6d.
"His accuracy is undoubted, yet his facts out-marvel all
romance. These facts are here made use of as materials
wherewith to form the mighty fabric of evolution."--_Manchester
Guardian_.
XXIV. MAN AND WOMAN. By HAVELOCK ELLIS. Illustrated. Second Edition. 6s.
"Mr. Havelock Ellis belongs, in some measure, to the
continental school of anthropologists; but while equally
methodical in the collection of facts, he is far more cautious
in the invention of theories, and he has the further
distinction of being not only able to think, but able to write.
His book is a sane and impartial consideration, from a
psychological and anthropological point of view, of a subject
which is certainly of primary interest."--_Athenaeum_.
XXV. THE EVOLUTION OF MODERN CAPITALISM. By JOHN A. HOBSON, M.A. 3s. 6d.
"Every page affords evidence of wide and minute study, a
weighing of facts as conscientious as it is acute, a keen sense
of the importance of certain points as to which economists of
all schools have hitherto been confused and careless, and an
impartiality generally so great as to give no indication of his
[Mr. Hobson's] personal sympathies."--_Pall Mall Gazette_.
XXVI. APPARITIONS AND THOUGHT-TRANSFERENCE. By FRANK PODMORE, M.A. 3s.
6d.
"A very sober and interesting little book.... That
thought-transference is a real thing, though not perhaps a very
common thing, he certainly shows."--_Spectator_.
XXVII. AN INTRODUCTION TO COMPARATIVE PSYCHOLOGY. By Professor C. LLOYD
MORGAN, F.R.S. With Diagrams. 6s.
"A strong and complete exposition of Psychology, as it takes
shape in a mind previously informed with biological science....
Well written, extremely entertaining, and intrinsically
valuable."--_Saturday Review_.

Peoples. By OTIS T. MASON, Curator of the Department of Ethnology in the
United States National Museum. 3s. 6d.

discrimination."--_The Lancet_.
XXX. EVOLUTION IN ART: As Illustrated by the Life-Histories of Designs.
By Professor ALFRED C. HADDON, F.R.S. With 130 Illustrations. 6s.
"It is impossible to speak too highly of this most unassuming
and invaluable book."--_Journal Anthropological Institute_.
XXXI. THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE EMOTIONS. By TH. RIBOT, Professor at the
College of France, Editor of the _Revue Philosophique_. 6s.
"Charmingly written, and full of lucid explanation and
brilliant comparison. A masterly exposition."--_British Medical
Journal_.

Perception. By EDMUND PARISH. 6s.
"The most comprehensive and most scientific work on false
perception that has up till now been written in any
language."--_Journal of Mental Science_.
XXXIII. THE NEW PSYCHOLOGY. By E. W. SCRIPTURE, Ph.D. (Leipzig). With

XXXV. THE NATURAL HISTORY OF DIGESTION. By A. LOCKHART GILLESPIE, M.D.,
F.R.C.P. Ed., F.R.S. Ed. With a large number of Illustrations and
Diagrams. 6s.
"Dr. Gillespie's work is one that has been greatly needed. No
comprehensive collation of this kind exists in recent English
literature. All the important work that has appeared within the
past few years is discussed so far as the limits of the book
allow of discussion, and extremely little of value has been
omitted. Not least interesting are the accounts of the author's
own original work."--_American Journal of the Medical
Sciences_.
XXXVI. DEGENERACY: Its Causes, Signs, and Results. By Professor EUGENE
S. TALBOT, M.D., Chicago. With Illustrations. 6s.
"The author is bold, original, and suggestive, and his work is
a contribution of real and indeed great value, more so on the
whole than anything that has yet appeared in this
country."--_American Journal of Psychology_.
XXXVII. THE RACES OF MAN. By J. DENIKER. 6s.
XXXVIII. THE PSYCHOLOGY OF RELIGION. An Empirical Study of the Growth of
Religious Consciousness. By EDWIN DILLER STARBUCK, Ph.D., Assistant

="The most attractive Birthday Book ever published."=
_Crown Quarto, in specially designed Cover, Cloth, Price 6s._
_"Wedding Present" Edition, in Silver Cloth, 7s. 6d., in Box.
Also in Limp Morocco, in Box._
=_An Entirely New Edition. Revised Throughout._=
=With Twelve Full-Page Portraits of Celebrated Musicians.=
DEDICATED TO PADEREWSKI.
=THE MUSIC OF THE POETS:=
A MUSICIANS' BIRTHDAY BOOK
Compiled by ELEONORE D'ESTERRE-KEELING.
This is an entirely new edition of this popular work. The size has been
altered, the page having been made a little longer and narrower (9 x
6-1/2 inches), thus allowing space for a larger number of autographs.
The setting-up of the pages has also been improved, and a large number
of names of composers, instrumentalists and singers, has been added to
those which appeared in the previous edition. A special feature of the
book consists in the reproduction in fac-simile of autographs, and
autographic music, of living composers; among the many new autographs
which have been added to the present edition being those of MM.
Paderewski (to whom the book is dedicated), Mascagni, Eugen d'Albert,
Sarasate, Hamish McCunn, and C. Hubert Parry. Merely as a volume of
poetry about music, this book makes a charming anthology, the selections
of verse extending from a period anterior to Chaucer to the present day.
_Among the additional writers represented in the new edition are Alfred
Austin, Arthur Christopher Benson, John Davidson, Norman Gale, Richard
Le Gallienne, Nora Hopper, Jean Ingelow, George Meredith, Alice Meynell,
Coventry Patmore, Mary Robinson, Francis Thompson, Dr. Todhunter,
Katharine Tynan, William Watson, and W. B. Yeats. The new edition is
illustrated with portraits of Handel, Beethoven, Bach, Gluck, Chopin,
Wagner, Liszt, Rubinstein, and others. The compiler has taken the
greatest pains to make the new edition of the work as complete as
possible; and a new binding has been specially designed by an eminent
artist._

=BIRDS OF THE BRITISH ISLES=
Drawn and Described by JOHN DUNCAN.
This volume contains about 400 drawings of birds by John Duncan,
naturalist and artist. The drawings are accompanied by a concise
description of each bird.
* * * * *
Mr. Chas. Dixon, in the Introduction to this work, says:--"Just a
century ago, British naturalists and the British public were captivated
by the first volume of Bewick's classic _History of British Birds_--a
work, completed by the issue of the second volume seven years later,
that gave more or less accurate pictures of all the species, and one
that has retained a high place in the affections of ornithologists and
artistic people generally down to the present time. To a certain extent,
Mr. Duncan's volume very closely resembles the immortal engraver on
wood; and in some respects, as those who have the pleasure of inspecting
his remarkable series of drawings will find for themselves, it is
superior. The present book, so far as British birds are concerned, is
practically unique. For the first time, an up-to-date manual, containing
an accurate and artistic picture of every species, is placed within the
reach of the multitude by reason of its very modest price."

The Natural History of Digestion.
BY A. LOCKHART GILLESPIE, M.D., F.R.C.P. ED., F.R.S. ED.
Dr. Gillespie, who has long been known as an original investigator in
this department of physiology, has in the present volume attempted to
bring together all the facts and recent discoveries bearing on this
subject of great scientific and practical importance. Dealing with the
subject in much detail, as well as broadly and comprehensively, the book
appeals both to medical specialist and general reader. The author shows
that digestion is a process which occurs throughout animated nature, and
beginning with digestion in plants, and describing many original and
other experiments with carnivorous plants, he passes on to digestion in
the lower animals, and then deals fully with the many complicated
problems offered by digestion in the higher animals and man. The
practical questions of diet are examined in their various aspects, and
the influence of alcohol, tea, and other stimulants discussed.

Degeneracy: ITS CAUSES, SIGNS, AND RESULTS.
By Professor EUGENE S. TALBOT, M.D., Chicago.
This volume presents, in a simple and comprehensive way, the basis of
fact on which the speculations of Nordau and others have been founded.
It is the first book written in English by a competent authority dealing
broadly with this subject. The author deals with more especial fulness
with the signs of degeneracy in the head and face--ears, jaws, teeth,
etc.--as those which he has chiefly studied, and which are of most
general interest; but he also discusses degeneracy in the body
generally, as well as its mental forms. The chief causes tending to
produce degeneracy in modern life are discussed--heredity, climate,
foods, alcohol, education, etc.--and the methods of combating them
considered. The book is fully illustrated, chiefly from original
photographs.

'_We seem at last to be shown men and women as they are; and at
first it is more than we can endure.... All Ibsen's characters
speak and act as if they were hypnotised, and under their
creator's imperious demand to reveal themselves. There never
was such a mirror held up to nature before; it is too
terrible.... Yet we must return to Ibsen, with his remorseless
surgery, his remorseless electric-light, until we, too, have
grown strong and learned to face the naked--if necessary, the
flayed and bleeding--reality._'--Speaker (London).
