Part of his franchise was to see his master in the most majestic terms, and Bonaparte Visiting the Pest-Ridden of Jaffa, showing the conqueror touching the sores of a hapless victim of the plague, was clearly intended to portray Napoleon as the modern hero sans pareil. But the picture is redeemed by the sharply observed bodies of the stricken. David would probably have laid the scene in a bare hospital room, and Gros considered just that. But feeling the need tor a more theatrical setting for his hero, he conceived of a Moorish courtyard looking out on the ramparts...
Thankfully, Joanne Hamlin's Natalia is no Mrs. Robinson. Mrs. Hamlin is quite lovely as a woman infatuated by both and individual youth and youth itself. Natalia is more than just a victim of sur-pressed menopause; as Turgenev, who shares much with James and George Eliot, envisioned her, she is complex, distraught.

As one of the organizers of a legal-aid agency called "Release," she has become a protector of youthful British drug addicts and pot users who are in trouble with...
Discussing the young Australian leukemia victim in the June 28 issue of the British Medical Journal, Dr. O. Margaret Garson and Meryl K. Robson moved a little closer to blaming LSD directly for the abnormalities. "The association between the ingestion of lysergide and the occurrence of acute leukemia may be casual rather than causal," they wrote, "but certain unusual features in our case suggest that it may be causal." Among these features were the patient's unusual bone-marrow chromosome pattern and the presence of large cells containing multiple micronucleoli. Dr. Lionel Grossbard and colleagues at Columbia...
