_Times._—“The verdict of posterity will probably be that _The
Golden Bough_ has influenced the attitude of the human mind
towards supernatural beliefs and symbolical rituals more
profoundly than any other books published in the nineteenth
century except those of Darwin and Herbert Spencer.”

*Totemism and Exogamy.* A Treatise on Certain Early Forms of Superstition and Society. With Maps. Four vols. 8vo. 50s. net.

MR. A. E. CRAWLEY in _NATURE_.—“That portion of the book which is
concerned with totemism (if we may express our own belief at the
risk of offending Prof. Frazer’s characteristic modesty) is
actually ‘The Complete History of Totemism, its Practice and its
Theory, its Origin and its End.’ ... Nearly two thousand pages are
occupied with an ethnographical survey of totemism, an invaluable
compilation. The maps, including that of the distribution of
totemic peoples, are a new and useful feature.”

*Lectures on the Early History of the Kingship.* 8vo. 10s. 6d. net.

_Athenæum._—“It is the effect of a good book not only to teach,
but also to stimulate and to suggest, and we think this the best
and highest quality, and one that will recommend these lectures to
all intelligent readers, as well as to the learned.”

*Psyche’s Task.* A Discourse concerning the Influence of Superstition on the Growth of Institutions. Second Edition, revised and enlarged. To which is added “The Scope of Social Anthropology.” 8vo. 6s. 6d. net.

_Outlook._—“Whether we disagree or agree with Dr. Frazer’s general
conclusions, he has provided us with a veritable storehouse of
correlated facts, for which, and for the learning that has gone to
their collection, and for the intellectual brilliance that has
gone to their arrangement, we can never be sufficiently grateful.”

*The Belief in Immortality and the Worship of the Dead.* Vol. I. The Belief among the Aborigines of Australia, the Torres Straits Islands, New Guinea, and Melanesia. The Gifford Lectures, St. Andrews, 1911-1912. 8vo. 12s. 6d. net.

MR. EDWARD CLODD in the _Daily Chronicle_.—“ ‘If a man die, shall
he live again?’ is a question asked chiliads before Job put it,
and the generations of mankind repeat it. In this profoundly
interesting volume, Professor Frazer, out of the treasury of his
knowledge, and with consummate art of attractive presentment,
gives the answers devised by the Lower Races.”

*Folk-Lore in the Old Testament.* Studies in Comparative Religion, Legend, and Law. Three vols. 8vo. 37s. 6d. net.

_Times._—“The idea of illustrating the Old Testament by analogies
drawn from the myths, customs, and superstitions of various
primitive peoples is not, of course, a new one ... but no one has
hitherto published anything to be compared with the vast and
varied store of information which Sir James Frazer now places
before us.... His book is a mine of instructive facts for which
all future students of the subject will be grateful.”

*Pausanias’s Description of Greece.* Translated with a Commentary, Illustrations, and Maps. Second Edition. Six vols. 8vo. 126s. net.

_Athenæum._—“All these writings in many languages Mr. Frazer has
read and digested with extraordinary care, so that his book will
be for years _the_ book of reference on such matters, not only in
England, but in France and Germany. It is a perfect thesaurus of
Greek topography, archæology, and art.”

*Studies in Greek Scenery, Legend and History.* Selected from his Commentary on Pausanias. Globe 8vo. 5s. net.

_Guardian._—“Here we have material which every one who has visited
Greece, or purposes to visit it, most certainly should read and
enjoy.... We cannot imagine a more excellent book for the educated
visitor to Greece.”
