We have frequently recommended in these columns the B.B.C. Talks
Pamphlets, and we wish to draw special attention to two of these which are published this spring. As an intro- duction to the series of talks on India now being given, Profes- sor L. F. Rushbrook-Williams has written an extremely lucid pamphlet " to give those listeners who are un- familiar with India a broad perspective." Professor Rush- brook-Williams succeeds admirably in his task, and there is perhaps no more useful service to the world to-day than the education of the general public on the present state of India. Another Talks Pamphlet which will be appreciated by all- intelligent travellers and by everyone curious to know how the rest of the world lives is entitled, The World and Ourselves. This pamphlet provides a brief introduction to the series of talks under the same title, designed to promote international goodwill. Different European- countries are described, fol- lowed on another day by discussions. These discussions are to be between a representative of the country and Mr. Evelyn Wrench. The World and Ourselves gives a short description of the countries which are being described, and lists of some useful travel books. Talks Pamphlets are published at 3d.
