Review.

Biology for Australian Students. W. M. Curtis, M.Sc. (Lecturer in Botany, University of Tasmania.)

A well written text catering particularly for Australian conditions although New Zealand teachers and students will find much of the contents suitable for post-primary instruction. The book covers the main parts of the syllabuses in biology for the Matriculation Examination in Tasmania and Leaving Certificate Examinations in New South Wales and Victoria. Details of practical experiments pertinent to each chapter are given. A useful appendix covers dissection instructions for the Rabbit, the Vascular system of the Frog, the Ventral arterial system of the Dogfish, etc., as well as some formulae for culture media and the better known reagents. Aust. and N.Z. retail price 10/6.

P.M.R.
