  • Description: <p>The aim of this section is to give brief indications of the character, content, and cost of new books in the various fields of biology. More books are received by<italic>The Quarterly</italic>than can be reviewed critically. All submitted books, however, are carefully considered for originality, timeliness, and reader interest, and we make every effort to find a competent and conscientious reviewer for each book selected for review.</p> <p>Of those books that are selected for consideration, some are given brief notice, most receive critical reviews, and a few are featured in lead reviews.<italic>Unsigned brief notices,</italic>written by one of the editors, may be given to such works as anthologies or symposium volumes that are organized in a fashion that makes it possible to comment meaningfully on them.<italic>Regular reviews</italic>are more extensive evaluations and are signed by the reviewers. The longer<italic>lead reviews</italic>consider books of special significance. Each volume reviewed becomes the property of the reviewer. Most books not reviewed are donated to libraries at Stony Brook University or other appropriate recipients.</p> <p>The price in each case represents the publisher's suggested list price at the time the book is received for review, and is for purchase directly from the publisher.</p> <p>Authors and publishers of biological books should bear in mind that<italic>The Quarterly</italic>can consider for notice only those books that are sent to The Editors.<italic>The Quarterly Review of Biology,</italic>C-2615 Frank Melville, Jr. Memorial Library, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY 11794-3349 USA. We welcome prepublication copies as an aid to early preparation of reviews.</p>
