Metabolic Pathways Chart, 1976 Devised by D. E. Nicholson. Large charts (40" x 30") are available from the publishers, Koch-Light Laboratories

A n e x p l a n a t o r y booklet, i n c l u d i n g a reference index to the C h a r t , by Dr. Nicholson is also available from Koch-Light at 50p. The new - - the thirteenth - - edition of Dr. Nicholson's 'Metabolic Pathways Chart', together with its brief (20 pages) accompanying guide, will be welcomed by tens of thousands of
people who consult these diagrams. We are told that about 550,000 have been printed. The multipficity of pathways and the complexity of their interlinking represents a big field. A ready reference source is therefore an invaluable help in tracing one's ways through the field. The author has brought the information reliably and skilfully up-to-date. Different colours help the clarity of the charts. The dedication of the author to his chosen task and the generous support by the sponsors has led to an attractive colourful production which will adorn the walls of many laboratories and offices and serve as an invaluable source of information.
