Abstract
THE vital part played by scientific and technical research in the Second World War is recognized by everyone-radar, high-speed aircraft, magnetic mines, degaussing, Pluto, Fido, and now atomic energy, are only a few of the many achievements of science and engineering of which we now hear so much. Cabinet ministers and the Press have paid high tribute to such achievements and we are justified in hoping that there is a better future in store for scientific research in Great Britain.
