Abstract
THE 1928 meeting of the British Association will linger in the memory as a delightful reunion, at which, without the announcement of any sensational discovery, much useful and important work was accomplished. Centred in the midst of one of our greatest industrial and commercial communities, it has accomplished valuable propaganda work for science, driving home into the mind of the ordinary citizen some appreciation of the fact that not merely his material prosperity and comfort, but also a large proportion of all that renders civilised existence possible, is dependent upon science and its advancement.
