A FRAMEWORK OF ENGLISH HISTORY
1066-1485
By S. M. TOYNE, M.A., Late Senior History Master at Haileybury College.
1_s._
It is suggested that this volume may be of considerable assistance not
only to students using the ordinary text-books, but also to those whose
work is based on some such series as Messrs. Bell's +English History
Source Books+. The author's object has been to produce a volume that
will be an aid to, and not a substitute for, reading, and it is hoped
that it may be of value as giving a summary of important events and a
review of national development.

+The Government of Man+
AN INTRODUCTION TO ETHICS AND POLITICS
By G. S. BRETT, M.A. (Oxon.)
ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO, FORMERLY
PROFESSOR OF PHILOSOPHY AT THE GOVERNMENT COLLEGE, LAHORE
Among the topics dealt with in this brilliant and most original study
are: Greek morality, a general view; the morality of the Cosmopolitan
Age, of the Roman Republic, and Empire; some aspects of the Middle Ages;
theory and practice, 1265-1600; the psychological problems of modern
life and the political and religious aspects of conduct.
"The book will be found helpful to any one who takes an intelligent
interest in the subjects which it treats. The author has read widely
and grasped what he has read; he does not aim at originality, but he
succeeds in being essentially fairminded, and his summary, which
gives the kernel of many authorities, will be of real use as an
introduction both to politics and ethics separately, but more
particularly in their relations to each other."--_Cambridge Review._
