Notes on the preparation of papers for publication in the Journal of Hygiene and in Parasitology.

Before the foundation in 1893 of the Journal of Pathology and Bacteriology by the late Professor Sir G. Sims Woodhead, there was no English journal devoted to pathology, bacteriology and kindred subjects. In 1901 Professor G. H. F. Nuttall founded the Journal of Hygiene, the second English journal of this type, and edited it till his death in December 1937. Owing to the increasing number of papers on parasitological subjects, which he received for publication in this journal, he founded Parasitology in 1908 and was its chief editor till 1933. He was very proud of both journals, and for some years made himself personally responsible for the heavy expenses of production. Within a few years of its foundation each began to pay for itself, and afterwards both were taken over by the Cambridge University Press. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
