October 28, 1931 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents notes on various books. The book "Mexicana: A Book of Pictures," is known for his assembling of the superb collection of Mexican arts and crafts which has recently been the rounds of the U.S.'s major museums. The book "The Problems of Evolution," informs that evolutionists are engaged in stock-taking. After three decades under the harsh rule of Weismannian heredity, they have rediscovered the environment, not as a control, but as a cause of change. The book "A Night of Death," strictly observing the unities of time and place, the movement and the mood of a novel is that of a lyric tragedy.
