May 22, 1929 issue

The article presents information about various books. "Versailles to Rapallo, 1920-1922: The Diary of an Ambassador," by Viscount d'Abernon, with historical notes by Maurice A. Gerothwohl, promises to be a work of considerable importance for the history of post-war Europe. In "The Art of Thinking," Ernest Dimnet achieves two hundred pages of informal chit-chat without a single reference to either the undistributed middle or the fallacy of misplaced concreteness. "The Theory of Morals," by E.F. Carritt is in a sense a companion volume to the author's "Theory of Beauty," and in its method of treating the problems of ethics follows the same plan as did the earlier volume in treating aesthetic theories.
