Changing Trends in Undergraduate Chemical Education is the subject of a conference held last October at State University of New York at Binghamton. Proceedings have been published in a 57-page illustrated book availa­ ble from Dr. C. Max Hull, chemistry department chairman at the university, free of charge. Free Bread for Everyman is the title of a book by Peter Harsany published by Academic Publishing Co., P.O. Box 42, Snowdon Sta., Montreal 26, Que., for $4.80. Subtitled "An Essay on World Hunger and Production Re­ quirements," the book (which is a Canadian Centennial Project essay) offers solutions to the problems of starvation and malnutrition which af­ flict two thirds of the world's popula­ tion.
