Professor of Psychological Medicine in the University of Edinburgh who chose the title of his lee tures from a poem by W. H. Auden ' Look stranger at this island now.' He will concern himself with the interaction of tradition, social environment, and personality in our changing society; and he will select for particular examination a number of areas in which things seem to have gone wrong-indicators of malaise in our community today. 1: Stability and Change in Social Environment
