Professor JAMES RITCHIE , D.So. (Professor of Natural History in the University of Aberdeen) : ' Whither are we Travelling and what are we to do about it ? " (From Aberdeen)
PREVIOUS talks in this series have told the story of man's age-long struggle against the forces of Nature-particularly the changes which have come over our own countryside through man's intervention since the days when elk, reindeer, wolf, and bear roamed the vast forests of Britain. But the story is not yet finished. In this final talk, Professor Ritchie looks forward as well ns backward in discussing the lessons man has learned from the struggle and their probable effect on future changes.
