Linear-Groups with an-Exposition of the Galois Field Theory. By LE DICKSON, Assistant Professor of Mathematics in the Uni-versity of Chicago. Leipzig, Teubner's Sammlunc von Lehrbuchern auf deni Ge-biete der mathematischen Wissenschaften. 1901. Vol. VI. Pp. x+ 312. In 1898 the well-known firm of BG Teubner, Leipzig, Germany,, began the publication of the'Encyklopadie der matheinatischen Wissenschaften mit Einschluss ihrer Anwen-dungen,'which is intended to give in seven large volumes a general outline of the known parts of mathematics, together, with applica-tions. As a comparatively small amount of space could be devoted to each subject, the samiie firm decided to publish a large series of advanced text-books in connection with this encyclopedia. This series was planned espe-cially to enable the authors of articles for the encyclopedia to develop their subjects more fully, and thus make their articles more use-ful. Other writers are, however, invited to make the series as complete as possible. More than fifty different volumes of this series havealready been announced by almost as many different authors. The list of authors includes a number of prominent writers of various countries. The great majority of these are Germans, as might have beeninferred from the fact that the work is due to German influence and is published by a Ger-man firm. Outside of Germany the Italians seem to have been the most active collabora-tors, but most of the other European coun-tries, together with Amnerica, have promised contributions.This series of text-books, together with the encyclopedia, will doubtlessA act as a very strong stimulus for greater inathematical activity, and it will tend to increase in a marked degree the German influence in higher mathe-matics. Never before has there been such ex-
