THE YEASTS: A Taxonomic StudyBy J. Lodder, Netherlands YeastFactories, and N. W. J. Kreger-Van Rij, Yeast Division, CentralMold Bureau, Laboratory for Mi-crobiology, Delft, Holland.
The primary purpose of this book is to serve as a manual for theidentification of the yeasts. But it aims at being more. The speciesare not only classified but fully discussed; synonyms and theoriginal description are given, the characteristics of each speciesare then formulated in a standard description, and details on theorigin of the culture are added. Concluding the discussion of eachgenus are extensive references to the literature.

MOLECULAR THEORY OF FLUIDSBy H. S. Green, Institute ofMathematical Physics, Universityof Adelaide, S. Australia.
This is an account of the general properties of fluids, in terms ofmolecular structure. A rigorous quantitative treatment of thesubject is rendered intelligible to the reader with a modest mathe-matical equipment. Along with the mathematical development,this book presents a qualitative or semiquantitative description inpurely physical terms.
