Eighteen writers have contributed to a little book which touches on the physical, mental, and religious aspects of the child, upon infancy, upon music and education, upon sunlight. Many, if not most, of the observations are quite sensible and contain remarks which may be perhaps helpful to occasional mothers. The more useful chapters are those by Dr. Pritchard on the psychology of the infant, by Dr. Hadfield on the development of self-consciousness in the child, and by Mr. Cyril Flower on psychological factors in the religious development of the child. Some of the chapters are quite worthless, but these the reader can discover for himself.
