Dear All
Once again we need reviewers for resources that we have
received at the Centre during the past few months.
Completed reviews will be published in our journal
(formerly Physical Sciences Educational Reviews) 'Reviews' (due out in spring
2010).
If you would like to review one (or more) of the items
listed below please let me know.
If you need more information about the books, I have
included a link to the publisher’s page,
To meet the deadline for the next journal, reports would
be required by the end of April 2010.
Regards
Roger Gladwin
