matter. Director-General Taylor's figures do not indicate that within the last ten years any noteworthy evidence of physical decadence has taken place in recruits except as regards their teeth. This may mean a sign of physical degeneracy or an outcome of more care and strictness in examining and appraising the condition of the teeth. It is argued that sanitary laws and reforms have caused the s...

Dr. Parnell gives a straight-forward and intelligible account pf the principles of somatotyping; describes the technique of examcation in some detail; and provides several pages of photographs, ^'hich illustrate some combinations of the three components?endoJnorphy, mesomorphy, and ectomorphy. He then goes on to show how the classification-system may be applied to family studies; to Progress in...

Service de Physique Théorique,

We study the problem of constructing a probability density in 2N -dimensional phase space which reproduces a given collection of n joint probability distributions as marginals. Only distributions authorized by quantum mechanics, i.e. depending on a (complete) commuting set of N variables, are considered. A diagrammatic or graph theoretic formulation of the problem is developed. We then exactly ...

Two key cellular processes, namely transcription and replication, require the opening of the DNA double helix and act differently on the two DNA strands, generating different mutational patterns (mutational asymmetry) that may result, after long evolutionary time, in different nucleotide compositions on the two DNA strands (compositional asymmetry). Here, we propose to model the spatio-temporal...
