England and Germany. By Leaders of Public Opinion in Both

Empires. Collected by Dr. Ludwig Stein. (Williams and Norgate. Is. net.)—The series of articles by prominent Germans and English- men published during the summer in "Nord and Sid" have been collected and issued in English. A few contributions to the dis- cussion are now added for the first time, and among these are papers by Sir Rufus Isaacs and Mr. Ramsay MacDonald. There can be no doubt, however, that the most important article in the collection remains that of Mr. Balfour, whose analysis of the relations between the two countries is altogether admirable.
