Abstract
NEVER has the demand for natural knowledge of all kinds been so insistent as during the present war, and scientific information of the most various kinds has been placed at the disposal of many who have had no previous training in such subjects. They and the students of science have usually no common language, and the ideas which even the simpler technical terms connote are unfamiliar to them. In these circumstances it is no easy matter to place the resources of science effectively at the disposal of all who may wish to utilise them.
