Extract

Professor J. C. Branner has written a most interesting and valuable treatise on the “Decomposition of Rocks in Brazil,” of which he has kindly sent me a copy. All who want to study agencies of decomposition and denudation as they act in tropical countries cannot do better than read Professor Branner's clear and well-digested exposition, illustrated as it is by excellent reproductions of photographs and by figures and diagrams.
