To: Undisclosed-recipients


Dear Panel
You will notice at once that the list of materials available this month
contains a whole raft of films. Some of these are not especially germane to
our community although it rather depends on the perspective of the review. I
will remove most of them from the list next month so please select them now
even if you intend to review them in a month or so.

There are also some important new books  this month and in the previous two
or three.

Please send your requests to Bryony at
ldr at leonardo.org

and we will process them as soon as possible.
All good wishes

Michael
