Abstract
A MAJOR problem brought to the fore during this War has been to bridge the gulf between scientific knowledge and its application. The Industrial Health Research Board has, during the last twenty-five years, published more than eighty reports on industrial conditions in relation to the health and well-being of the workers. Unfortunately, the necessity for publishing all the data, so that other workers in this field could know what exactly was the evidence on which the conclusions were based, rendered them of little use to those concerned with organizing industry. To remedy this, pamphlets are to be issued giving the conclusions in more general form, and No. 1, called "Ventilation and Heating; Lighting and Seeing", has just been published (H.M. Stationery Office, price 3d).
