This issue begins a new feature edited by Mr. Boris Kuvshinoff of the Applied Physics Laboratory, The Johns Hopkins University. In the Current Literature Section he has collected the titles for the year 1974 of major fire research journals. These titles have been indexed according to subject and author and are collected here at the end of the section. The issue contains two reviews. A paper by Dr. V. Sjolin discusses fire defense education in Sweden. This is an area where Sweden has done some excellent work that the may find useful in this country. A review by Dr. R. Fristrom of the Applied Physics Laboratory, The Johns Hopkins University, covers the problems of flame sampling. The 'Directory of Fire Research in the United States,' 7th Edition, 1971-1973, published by the Committee on Fire Research, National Research Council (abstracted on p. 247), lists the many programs and establishments active in the fire field. An impressive summary of the NSF/RANN work is abstracted on page 243. This bibliography of the NSF/RANN work to date is available as indicated in the abstract.
