It asks how and why, at that time in South Australian history, the state’s parliament was willing and able to relax controls over behaviours that were traditionally considered immoral. -

Professor of Microbiology, John Curtin School of Medical Research, 1949 to 1967: Administrative and Domestic Arrangements
55 Chapter 5. Professor of Microbiology, John Curtin School of Medical Research, 1949 to 1967: Administrative and Domestic Arrangements Europe, July 1949 to February 1950 As described in the previous chapter, Sir Howard Florey had made arrangements for the first three professors appointed to the John Curtin School of Medical Research to meet him in Oxford early in August 1949. Adrien Albert (Medical Chemistry) was working in the Wellcome Laboratories in London and Hugh Ennor (Biochemistry) had come over from Melbourne. Bobbie and I arrived in England on 2 August. She stayed with my friend Cecil Hackett and his wife Beattie at Northwood, just out of London. I went up to Oxford and spent a very busy four days talking about the future of the School with my new colleagues (it was the first time that we had met) and with Florey. With the help of Florey©s colleague, Gordon Sanders (who later came out to Canberra for a few months to help us with the planning), among other things we decided on an H-shape for the JCSMR building, with the main laboratories on the south side of each wing, to avoid direct sunlight, and rooms for special facilities on the north side, with narrow passages, to make cluttering with equipment difficult. The spine of the H was reserved for School requirements, with the library on the top floor, a lecture theatre and seminar rooms, administrator©s offices and a tea-room on the ground floor, and stores on the bottom floor. Since there were no laboratories in Canberra at the time, the ANU had arranged with Burnet to make available two laboratories at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute until we were able to move into laboratories in Canberra. -

Memoirs of Ruchi Ram Sahni Pioneer of Science Popularisation in Punjab
Memoirs of Ruchi Ram Sahni Pioneer of Science Popularisation in Punjab Edited by Narender K. Sehgal Subodh Mahanti Recollections of an unsung hero PROFESSOR Ruchi Ram Sahni’s is not a name that people are likely to recognize—let alone an average Indian, not even someone from the Indian scientific community. Which is indeed a pity. For this unsung hero of Indian science from the pre-Independence era should have been accorded as prominent a place in the annals as the likes of P. C. Ray. J. C. Bose (RRS’s contemporaries), S N. Bose, M.N. Saha and C.V Raman. The late 19th century and the early 20th century truly constituted a period of Indian “renaissance” — in arts, literature, and science to which RRS belonged. It as a period of cultural and intellectual ferment which threw up remarkable men and women who dedicated themselves to building a progressive and self-reliant independent India However, the unfortunate fact of history is that while the circumstances and the manner of evolution of post- independent India made some better known and remembered, others like RRS were forgotten ... RRS was a chemist by training but his historic contribution is not in the field of research and discovery—and may be that is why he is not as well-known as the others of his time—but in popularising science among the common people. In that respect his contributions were unique. Though the sub-title of the book refers to him as the pioneer of science popularisation in Punjab, his were pioneering efforts in the entire country.-And it may not be an exaggeration to say that they remain unique to this day considering that the post-independence Indian scientific community has, by and large, accorded little importance to communicating science to the public.. -

Many of these Sikhs shaved their heads, freely smoked tobacco and hashish and were not particular about maintaing the five external symbols of the faith. In the absence of a centralized church and an attendant religious hierarchy, heterogeneity in religious beliefs, plurality of rituals, and diversity of life styles, were freely acknowledged. A pilgrimage to the Golden Temple could be supplemented with similar undertakings to the Ganges at Hardwar or the shrine of a Muslim saint. Attending seasonal festivals at Benares or Hardwar was in no way considered a transgression of prevailing Sikh doctrines, whatever teleological studies may like to assert today. -

The experience of Latin America holds much that is of value to the Philippines. Our similar problems, set starkly against our similar historical backgrounds and often closely scrutinized in terms of similar North American standards of progress, render their responses to their situation relevant tn us. The Philippines too finds iCelf today at a critical threshold. For most Filipinos, however, the preoccupation of the moment remains development or modernization. But the lesson of MnAmerica consists of the insight that the dream of development cannot be realized within the context of dependency and domination that still prevaih among us. Liberation is necessary.
