“We find ourselves wishing that he had kept his talent in a napkin
rather than put it to such uses.”
“The scenes of English country life in the last part are a pleasant
offset to the earlier war pictures.”
“The vivid battle descriptions that are the best part of the book
cannot atone for its essential narrowness and shallowness, for its
manifold defects of thought and style, for its systematic glorification
of hates and follies and prejudices that were scarcely excusable even
in the heat of the conflict. ‘Peter Jameson’ is the product of a mind
still inflamed by the fever of war.” W. H. C.
“We admire the way in which the author has ripped up a pre-war
story and transformed it into a lively criticism of our military
authorities, and added a vivid impression of the Battle of Loos.”
“The book has the essential quality that the author enjoys his own
story and believes it to be true. ‘Peter Jameson’ is not a great novel,
but it is certainly a good one.”

“It is only in recent days that employers have realized how greatly
production depends upon the spirit of the laborer. For this reason
this book with its careful, authoritative studies of varied aspects of
the service work should be most welcome.”
“To the already acquainted with the material and able to supply for
himself the connecting links, it gives many leads. To the uninitiated
it gives a solid back-ground for further study.” M. J. Janovsky

“These tales belong to a class that does not quite include the out-
and-out ghost story, but does reach out to the supernatural in the
indefinable fashion that we nowadays call psychic without bothering
to define what psychic means. This is a perfectly fitting field for
fiction of the non-realistic kind, for it does not demand belief but
imagination. Algernon Blackwood and ‘Fiona McLeod’ were adepts at
this form of story, and are here well represented, together with Jack
London, W. T. Stead and others.”—Outlook

(Eng ed 20–16353)
“Dr Einstein, who writes the preface, states that the author ‘has
succeeded in rendering the fundamental ideas of the theory
accessible to all who are to some extent conversant with the methods
of reasoning of the exact sciences.’ Formulae and equations are by no
means lacking and the vocabulary is hardly suited to the capacity of
the general reader—to whom the simply written introduction by Dr
Turner should prove more acceptable.”—N Y P L New Tech Bks

“The object of this book is to set forth clearly and concisely those
fundamental principles upon which is built the superstructure of
business law. In order to make clear such principles ... concrete
illustrations have been used, some of which are synopses of, and
excerpts from, the leading cases decided in Great Britain and the
United States.” (Preface) At the end of each chapter are a number of
carefully prepared questions referring to the subject matter of the
text and a number of legal forms are given in connection with various
subjects which, on occasion, can be adapted to individual use. All
technical terms are carefully explained. The chapter headings are:
Law in general; Torts; Definition and classification of contracts;
Essentials of a valid contract; Competent parties; An agreement;
Reality of consent; Consideration; Legality; The form; Proof of a
contract; Interpretation of contracts; Operation of contracts; The
discharge of contracts; Forms; Agency; Sales; Bailments and carriers;
Partnerships and corporations; Suretyship and guaranty; Insurance;
Negotiable instruments; Property; Bankruptcy; Patents, copyrights
and trade-marks; Master and servant; Damages; Evidence. There is
an index.
