I have perused with pleasure this very interesting booklet written by Dr. Seshadrinathan. It forms one of a series of useful scientific popular books which are published with the object of educating the public and enabling them to understand and appreciate recent advances in Science. Dr. Seshadrinathan has dealt with an important subject. Vitamins and their role in diet and disease. The easy conversational style, which he has introduced is both attractive and instructive. The study of such books should be encouraged in all schools, not by prescribing them as compulsory subjects of study, but by imparting the instruction contained therein in popular lectures to groups of students, outside the regular hours of a school. Much of the routine instruction given at set periods for purposes of examination. May, with advantage, be compressed in a shorter period or curtailed, and the interest of pupils stimulated and their horizon of intellectual comprehension widened by such popular subjects. I wish the book will find a wide circulation among the public and in particular pupils and teachers.
