Sin FREDERICK WHYTE'S Asia in the Twentieth Century (Scribner, 7s. 6d.) is a smallish book, of particular importance, however, for there are few Europeans who have as broad and comprehensive a grasp as Sir Frederick of the political problems Of modern India. As first President of the Legislative Assembly he won nothing but praise from all parties : his book shows the same breadth of vision that brought him universal esteem in office.
