SOFTWARE SURVEY SECTION

The purpose of the Software Survey Section, developed by the Software Division of Pergamon Press, in FOOD and CHEMICAL TOXICOLOGY, is to encourage the exchange of information on software programs relevant to toxicology. The number of scientists developing their own software is on the increase, but the existence of much of this software remains unknown to many who would benefit greatly from i t . I t is important, therefore, that some means of spreading this information be made available to those who wish to share i t with others.

The questionnaire on the following pages is designed to help you to report any software that you may have developed, or are in the process of developing. I f you want to share information on your software, please photocopy the questionnaire, complete i t with the relevant details, and return i t to:

Managing Editor BI BP~A

Woodmansterne Road Carshalton, Surrey SM5 4DS, England

The contents of the questionnaire wi l l not be reviewed, but wi l l be published as they are, in order that the exchange of information should be as rapid as possible. Any comments you have on the Software Survey Section would be greatly appreciated.
