ABSTRACT A GOOD practical guide to elementary botany is sorely needed, and this book by Mr. Comyns Berkeley will fill part of the gap; the practical plant anatomy is dealt with, and this is done extremely well. The author is obviously conversant with the practical side of botanical study, for he not only gives clear directions as to methods of approach but he also gives hints of difficulties-sometimes slight, but irritating-that are constantly cropping up. Another problem that students and even teachers are constantly meeting is that of sources of material. Few books give the reader any idea of where to obtain their type specimen. Mr. Berkeley gives sufficient help in a series of tables. This is very useful. Practical Plant Anatomy: an Elementary Course for Students. By Comyns J. A. Berkeley. Pp. 112.
