Abstract
THIS valuable record of the year, with its impartial survey of the world's history, is again planned on the lines which have long been familiar. Half of Part I., which is a narrative under the headings of various States, is devoted to the history of Great Britain and half to other countries, including all in which events of importance occurred. Part II., in addition to a chronological list of events and an obituary with short biographies, has the usual survey of literature, science, art, finance, and law. Science receives fourteen pages, of which more than half is devoted to biology in its various aspects, and the remainder to the physical sciences. The public documents printed in full are the treaties with Iraq and the Hejaz, and the Italian Labour Charter.
