King's Conege Lectures on Colonial Problems. Edited by F. J.
C. Hearnshaw. (G. Bell and Sons. 4e. 6d. net.)—This volume is a valuable contribution to those" Imperial studies" which, as Principal Barrows has said, fall obviously within the sphere of the University of London. It contains six lectures, delivered last year at Ring's College, in which experts of the highest authority deal with certain aspects of the great Imperial problem. Sir Charles Lucas discusses
The Influence of Science on Empire"; Mr. Sidney Low "The Problem of an Imperial Executive" ; whilst the other lecturers are Dr. T. J. Lawrence, Sir Everard ins Thorn, Sir John A. Cockburn, and Professor H. E. Egerton. Their names are warrant for the high quality of their work, and we can heartily commend this book to every reader who wishes to understand the kind of problems that Imperial statesmen are called upon to face to-day.
