...expected but still humiliating eight percentage points, government spokesmen began sounding unaccustomed notes of understanding and humility. "The vote of the French is like a warning shot," said Alain Peyrefitte, leader of the Gaullist U.D.R. party, shortly before this week's balloting. "We will know how to interpret their wishes...
...notorious organic chemistry course helped me understand some of the mechanisms and basic principles of biochemistry. Biochemistry, in turn, is important because medical science is exploring with increasing success the processes of life and of disease on a molecular level. To know what lab tests to order, how to interpret their results, and to be able to understand the relevant literature in clinical medicine, an elementary knowledge of biochemistry is important...
...British government will doubtless interpret the results as a vindication of its present policies. Almost immediately, it is expected to release its long-promised White Paper defining the future political status of Northern Ireland.

The Special Powers Act, under which several hundred Catholics have been detained without trial, will be ended immediately...
This simple piece of departmental arithmetic should make it evident that failure to retain any particular person constitutes neither an act of "firing" (as some observers would have it) nor does it reflect on the excellence of those who leave.

Indeed, a staffing policy aimed at filling "political" slots would be fatal to the intellectual quality of the department. What matters is increased concern with the broader aspects of economics and the socio-political forces in which the economic processes are embedded...
