While many of the alleyways of this part of town are no more than a dozen feet wide, there is still a steady stream of people, sacred Hindu cows, bicycles and bicycle rickshaws, and an occasional Toyota taxi. Everyone, even the upper-class women dressed in their flowing saris, wears sandals or else goes barefoot. During the summer monsoon the dirt roads in many parts of the city turn into permanent mud puddles and generally any clothing that reaches below the knees is assured of getting...

...hundreds of nominations from 15 countries, they chose the final recipient last week. She is Limnologist Ruth Patrick, 67, a much-honored pioneer in the study of water pollution, who is now chairman of Philadelphia's Academy of Natural Sciences. "She has done more to develop ideas about stream pollution and to bring such ideas forcibly before the world of industry than anyone now working," says Hutchinson. Indeed, Patrick played a key role in shaping the U.S.'s clean water act. Next month she will fulfill the Tyler prize's only stipulation: that the winner...
