Abstract
IN July the journal of the India Society of Engineers, first published in 1935, appeared under the new title Science and Engineering ; its content, which has always consisted almost exclusively of descriptive component on the Indian industrial outlook and evgits, remains unchanged. The altered name is intended to signify a break with the past and to symbolize the fact that India is now controlled by an independent administration. It is difficult to judge any Eastern publication by Western standards : the printing and lay-out of the present journal are certainly not good. Despite their shortcomings, however, these publications are valuable, for it is through such organs that Indian engineers are kept in touch with local progress in industrial practice and, when they enter the industrial field with scientific developments as well.
