A review of the sciences.
Christopher Chataway introduces Art for Science

M.I.T.'s ABC
One of the U.S.A.'s Meccas for scientists and engineers, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has started up courses in art because some of its professors feel 'most students don't know their ABCs in visual terms'. Do British science students know their ABCs?

The Disturbed Child
Many parents know that their child has a problem but do not have the necessary insight to deal with it: the problem might be as apparently simple as bed-wetting or stammering. A woman psychiatrist uses drawings and paintings to reveal children's characters and show the results of therapy.
