The Biology of the Protozoa

THE first edition of this book appeared in 1926, and was favourably reviewed in these pages at the time (NATURE, 118, 763, Nov. 27, 1926) by another hand: and since this new version is described as “thoroughly revised”, one turns to it with confident hope that the shortcomings of the earlier volume have been, hi the main, remedied. According to the author's preface, the chief amend ments are as follows:The Biology of the Protozoa.By Prof. Gary N. Calkins. Second edition, thoroughly revised. Pp. xii + 607 + 2 plates. (London: Baillière, Tindall and Cox, 1933.) 37s. 6d.
