Feedback Hi Mary, This year I haven't set aside as much time for professional reading as I should, and I've ruthlessly culled the email lists, blogs and paper journals that I subscribe to and read regularly. One of the few items to have survived the culling, and that I always take time to read, is your regular What's New email. You always manage to find interesting, useful and relevant resources , most of which I've never heard of before. Your abstracts are invaluable time-savers and the graphics add some much needed life and colour to the endless stream of text-only emails! Thank you for providing this regular email, and keep up the excellent work .
