You’ll be in
good company: the British Association expects 15 000 to turn up at its annual
meeting from 8 to 13 September, at the University of Birmingham. You can catch
up on brains, minds and consciousness, discuss ecowarriors or earth sciences,
and join in a day on “Difficult Choices”, the kind faced by the
genetic engineer
and by all of us as global warming continues. For more details, telephone:

973 3074/5/6 or fax: 0171 973 3051.
