ABSTRACT THE British Science Guild has now published the full text of the papers delivered, and a verbatim account of the subsequent discussion, at the symposium on the utilisation of coal,
held at the Royal Institution on March 27, a report of which appeared in NATURE of April 1. Members of Parliament; some of the largest trade unions; interested Government departments;
coal-getting and coal-distributing organisations; gas, oil and chemical interests; scientific and technical institutions, were all well represented, a fact which should encourage the Council
of the Guild to arrange more meetings of this kind on subjects of national importance and where scope is given for the expression of varying opinions and differing interpretations of
available data. It is the object of the British Science Guild to promote the application of scientific method and results to public affairs, and probably there is no surer way of appealing
to the public imagination than by providing facilities for experts to express in terms intelligible to the layman the effects of their investigations on industrial aspects of national
progress. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your institution Subscribe to
