THE FORMS OF WATER IN CLOUDS AND RIVERS, ICE AND GLACIERS. By J. TYNDALL, LL.D., F.R.S. With Twenty-six Illustrations. Sixth Edition, 'Felicitous illustrations, pertinent anecdote, and a crystal style make his (Professor Tyndall's) expositions read like a romance, while, we scarcely need add, he speaks with a scientific knowledge that few are competent to question. We simply report, therefore, a fascinating book, dealing largely with the phenomena of glaciers and snow, with which, more than any living man, Professor Tyndall has made us familiar.'-BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEW.1 'The most unlearned can comprehend it and delight in it.' CHEMIST AND DRUGGIST. 'This little book is well calculated to remove much of the deplorable ignorance of natural phenomena and their laws shown by the otherwise well-educated of the present day. It cannot fail to be intelligible and interesting to any thoughtful reader.' PHARMACEUTICAL JOURNAL. HENRY S. KING & CO., London. |
