REVOLUTION AND OTHER TALES. By MIargaret Baldwin. C.M.S. is. net.

Here we have a number of books on work in the mission field. They are very well got up and are wonderfully cheap. They illustrate very plainly the new method of approaching the mis- sionary problem as a matter of polity. The Study Circle has been mainly instrumental in making the study of missions interesting. It is no longer a collection of anecdotes about con- verts, but we are invited to study the national movements in the countries and to see how these will retard or assist the spread of Christian ideas. Thus Mr. Moule's book on Japan, Mr. Paton's on the New

Hebrides., and Mr. Costan's on China are admirably

adapted for the study of missions in these countries. Miss Crawford's book is a striking narrative of pioneer work among Pagans in Central Africa. Miss Baring Gould gives an account of the travels of a delegation from the C.M.S. who visited mission stations all over the world. In Revolution and other Tales Miss Baldwin gives, in an interesting way, some of her ex- periences of the Chinese in a medical mission.

THE TUTORIAL PRAYER BOOK, for the Teacher, the Student, and the General Reader. Edited by C. Neil and J. M. Wil- loughby. Second Impression. Harrison Trust.

The editors have had the advantage of criticism in preparing this impression. I cannot find, however., that any of the mis- statements as to matters of fact-some of them amazing-which the present writer noted in his copy of the first impression have been removed. A useful appendix on the Irish Prayer Book, contributed by the Rev. T. J. Pulvertaft, has been added.
