Abstract
A FURTHER list of inexpensive pamphlets on social, economic, political and international affairs, revised to February 1937, has been issued by the Office of Education, U.S. Department of the Interior, under the title “Public Affairs Pamphlets” (Bulletin No. 3, 1937). The compilation, which is limited to material published in the United States, was prepared primarily to meet the needs of the ten public forum demonstrations organizing programmes of public discussion. It is based on information supplied by publishers and is limited to brief pamphlets costing not more than 50 cents. No attempt is made to evaluate the contents of the pamphlets listed, although a brief statement of the contents is given in amplification of the title. Although not a comprehensive list, the indexing and arrangement of this publication according to publishers and authors as well as by subjects, make it a very useful guide to this type of literature.
