This volume, the first from the press of the International Psychoanalytic Library assembles the papers on psychoanalysis of the last ten years of Professor Putnam's life. There is an introduction by Professor Freud and an Obituary of the Editor, Dr. Ernest Jones, of London. Twenty-two papers are thus collected and followed by a bibliography of Professor Putnam's writings containing forty-seven numbers.

This is a deserved tribute to an American neurologist of distinction who never grew too old to listen to new ideas and to accept them if he found them true. Professor Putnam, by his tolerant and kindly attitude of mind, his catholic interests, and his youthful quality of enthusiasm for all that was good and worth while in life, endeared himself to his European confreres as he did to his American associates.

There is an excellent frontispiece portrait of Professor Putnam.
