Café culture and the city: The role of pavement cafés in urban public social life

This article explores the relationship between pavement cafés, street life and urban public social life. It argues that the licensing of public entertainment and the enforcement of liquor licences and rigid opening times have helped to undermine public social life in English cities. Attitudes which first gained ascendancy in the 1890s have remained dominant and, broadly speaking, unchanged. Nevertheless, there has been a recent and fairly rapid growth in wine bars, cafés and bistros in London and some other English cities. The paper explores whether these help to stimulate public social life. Reference is made to research in Holland and Denmark, and also recent experience in London and Manchester. The paper concludes that city policy makers should, in the short term at least, act to stimulate café culture. Some anti‐social and behavioural problems might well require an element of control, and not all urban areas are suited to café culture. Yet in a technological age, café culture represents one of the few remaining opportunities for public sociability. Where it creates a nuisance, it could and should be controlled but this is not the same thing as exercising an all‐persuasive moral control which has its roots in Victorian England.

Achievements in Optics

THIS is the first of a series of monographs, under A the general editorship of Drs. R. Houwink and J. A. A. Katelaar, to be published on the progress of research in Holland during the five years of German occupation. Most of the material was, for obvious reasons, kept secret during the War. Though prepared in secret, the text of in Optics, which gives a survey of optical work in the Netherlands immediately prior to and during the War, was actually ready for printing before the liberation. Technical difficulties delayed its appearance until a year later. As a result, no consideration is given, or reference made, to similar work in Allied countries, and it is difficult to appreciate how much of the work described in the monograph predates similar work which has appeared in scientific periodicals during the last few years. For example, both in the U.S.S.R. (notably by Maksutov) and in Great Britain, optical systems consisting of spherical mirrors and meniscus lenses have been investigated and developed. It speaks highly for the Dutch, however, that they, in spite of their isolation from other scientific workers, should have, simultaneously, made advances in both geometrical and physical optics of such fundamental importance. The descriptions of their new optical systems and instruments given in the monograph are, therefore, worthy of the closest study. Achievements in Optics By A. Bouwers.

Contribution to the Knowledge of the Influences of Gonadotrophic and Sex Hormones on the Gonads of Rats

THE idea of publishing a series of monographs on the progress of research in Holland during the recent war is an excellent one. The present volume is the seventh in the series, and consists of two main sections, and an appendix dealing with a number of diverse experimental observations. The first section concerns the hormonal factors on which the maintenance of testicular activity depends. The second deals with the corresponding aspects of ovarian physiology. Both sections are reports of experiments on rats, a fact which has to be borne in mind when generalizing the results. These show that testosterone can maintain the germinal but not the interstitial elements of the testes of rats the pituitaries of which have been removed, and that it therefore has a gonadotrophic function independent of the pituitary. The testicular involution which occurs as a result of oestrogenic stimulation can also be prevented by testosterone, and this Gaarenstroom and de Jongh interpret as being due not to any antagonistic effect of the androgen on the oestrogen, either in the pituitary or the circulation, but to the direct stimulating effect of the androgen on the testis.

Modern Development of Chemotherapy.

This book is one of the first reports from the nations oppressed by Nazi occupation. The editors explain in a foreword that this series of "Monographs on the Progress of Research in Holland During the War" was planned during wartime and the material kept secret up to the present. Publication at the earliest possible moment after the war did not permit the inclusion of references to worldwide literature and forced the authors to report mainly the results of their own investigations. The subject treated is the group of sulfonamide compounds and the discussion in the various chapters is in minute detail. Any investigator in the field of chemotherapy in general and of the sulfonamide drugs specifically will find it most interesting to read of the experimental work done in the Netherlands and of the theories brought forth by the authors. The mechanism of action is discussed from the bacteriologic and

Contribution to the Physics of Cellulose Fibres

THE trend of fibre research to-day is towards a X clearer understanding of the parts played by the crystalline and non-crystalline fractions in determining the properties of the fibre, and this is the theme of Dr. Hermans' monograph. It may be said at once that he has chosen to consider, perhaps wisely as a beginning, those phenomena for which the properties of the fibre may reasonably be supposed to be additive with respect to the behaviour of the two fractions. The physical ideas on which he bases his discussions are of the simplest kind, and even if one feels that he sometimes tends to over-simplification, one cannot but admire his astonishing faculty of getting the most out of such elementary postulates.

The Development of Aviation and Aeronautical Research in Holland in Recent Years

To understand aviation in Holland well, it is necessary to draw special attention to two points. The first is that Holland is a small country with a small military force and industry; both are also relatively small. The second point is that Holland has always occupied a central position in traffic lines. These two leading factors also rule things in aviation. They explain the following: The industry exists without any financial aid from the Government and only a small number of military machines are required annually. The air–traffic company (K.L.M.—Royal Dutch Air Lines) has a small amount of Government subsidy, but has, however, the advantage that the interest of our bankers and shipping concerns, in a quite natural way, is directed towards traffic in general and this interest could be won for air traffic in particular. The Government is fully alive to the importance of this new branch of transport. When we now turn to history the following can be seen.
