A Bibliography of Radiation Biology Teaching Materials * Charles Hinerman,Central MissouriState College, Warrensburg A valuable collection of titles of articles, visual aids, supplies, and equipment useful to anyone involved in teaching Radiobiology. The materials listed here include only those available at the time of writing in 1963. The science of radiationbiology is a rela- mer Institutesin RadiationBiology who gra- tively new one that cuts across almost all ciously submitted lists of references and of the traditionaldivisions of naturalscience. teaching aids.
