Abstract
THE revival of scentific thought in Europe has been signalles by the reappearance of familiar journals which were suppressed during the German occupanuonl, any by the publication of new journals. La Nature and Revue générate des sciences in France were swfft to recover, and they were joined a few months ago by the new journal Atomes. A little more than a year ago, Experientia, described as a “monthly journal of pure and applied science”, under the direction of A. v. Muralt, L. Ruzicka and J. Weigle, with Dr. H. Mislin as editor, was published by Verlag Birkhauser AG. of Basle. The general language used is German; but announcements are printed in German, French, Italian and English. The contents consist of general illustrated articles (in one of the languages mentioned), followed by “brief reports” of current work corresponding to the “Letters to the Editors” in Nature, most of which have summaries in a language other than that of the ‘report’ itself, and book reviews, etc. The published price is 2 Swiss francs each issue plus postage. From Germany comes Zeitschrifi für Naturforschung, published by Dieterich'she Verlagsbuchhandlung, Wiesbaden, by authority of the Military Government. This appeared in January of this year, under the direction of A. Sommerfeld, K. Clusius and A. Kiihn, and is also a monthly journal. It contains short original articles, preliminary announcements of investigations, reviews of recent work, and news; the whole is in German.
