Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Commonwealth of Australia: Federal Handbook, Prepared in Connection With the Eighty-Fourth Meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, Held in Australia, August, 1914 This Handbook, specially prepared for the use of members of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, at the Australian Meeting of 1914, contains a series of articles written by persons selected for that purpose by the Federal Council in Australia. These articles set forth matters which, it is believed, will be found of interest, and the data of which are in most eases not readily accessible to general readers abroad, nor even to those in Australia. Much of the material also has not hitherto been published. The issue of the Handbook has been made possible by the generosity of the Federal Government of Australia in undertaking to defray the expense of publication. That Government also has very kindly placed all desired official sources of information in its possession at the disposal of the Editor. The articles were decided upon by the Federal Council in Australia of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, in whose name the invitation was made to each of the writers to contribute. Each author is alone responsible for all statements made or opinions expressed in his article. The closing chapter refers to miscellaneous matters worthy of mention which were not covered by the preceding chapters.
