Infant Lift : its Nurture and Care. By E. N.

G., with preface by Erasmus Wilson, F.R.S. (Sampson Low and Co.)—This little book is the work of a lady, and is a reprint of an essay which appeared in the pages of a medical journal conducted by the editor, and seems to deserve the praise which that gentleman bestows upon it. The " frivolous " women who still are unwilling to exchange the cares and duties of motherhood for the pursuits of political and professional life will read it, genuine result as it is of a mother's experience, with pleasure and profit.
