Overview: It has been nearly 35 years since the peacetime Biology Division of Oak Ridge National Laboratory was started, born of rather inauspicious conditions. Virtually no facilities were available and most of the wartime scientists had left. So, when we started out, it was obvious to me that something had to be done to reestab­ lish research. Even more, because Oak Ridge was not known at that time for its biological work but rather for the separation of Uranium 235, nuclear reactor development, and radioisotope produc­ tion, a new tradition had to be promoted. Although good biological work

Overview: This work sets out in some detail the nature of calculations required in practical cost-benefit analysis. It also considers non-priced benefits and costs in several relevant case studies. In addition to the more familiar applications in the areas of transport and forestry the authors consider examples such as computer selection; and discuss how it is possible to take several different views about the desirability of asset disposal in the public sector.

Overview: ‘The only true history of a country‘, wrote Thomas Macaulay, ‘is to be found in its newspapers‘.

Overview: Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim (1493-1541), commonly called Paracelsus, was both one of the most original medical thinkers of the sixteenth century and was the man who made opium (as laudanum), arsenic, copper sulphate, iron, lead, mercury, potassium sulphate, and sulphur part of the pharmacopoeia. A man of many parts, but a pioneer chemist, Paracelsus can be regarded as the originator of a body of work which was the precursor of chemical pharmacology and therapeutics. To no small extent he stands, therefore, as a father figure of the modern pharmaceutical industry. To
