IT HAS seemed desirable to notice these three works together, because they represent, probably, the most notable attempts to compile comprehensive bibliographies covering the newer phases of the social sciences.

The Bibliographic dcs Socialismus und Communismus forms the first installment of a series of bibliographies projected by Josef Stammhammer, the librarian of the Juridisch-politischer Lese-Verein in Vienna, and designed to cover the field of " socialokonomischer Literatur." The Bibliographic der Socialpolitik forms the second work of the series. Other volumes will deal with the bibliography of " theoreti- scher Nationaldkonomie," " Volkswirtschaftspolitik," and " Finanz- wissenschaft."

The scope of the Bibliographic dcs Socialismus und Communismus is fairly well indicated by its title. But the compiler has chosen to give a broad scope to the content of the terms socialism and commun- ism, and has included in this volume topics only distantly related to socialism and communism in the narrow sense. The work contains titles of magazine articles and pamphlets as well as books. The main body of the publication consists of an alphabetical author list of each single book, pamphlet or article included. These entries give title in full, or nearly so, size, place, and date of publication, but do not give price. A subject index follow^, m \\hi< -h the authors
