The elusive Caduceus
From time to time in our 'Reading matter' column we have listed articles from the periodical Caduceus. However it appears that, until recently, there were no libraries in Australia that held this publication. But with the help of members Philip Thomson and Robyn Waymouth your newsletter editor has tracked Caduceus down. I am now able to inform you that the Research Library at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney has ordered back copies of volumes 2 to 9. Also I am able to offer the following information for those who are thinking of subscribing.

Published three times a year by the Department of Medical Humanities - 1113, Southern Illinois University School of Medicine, P.O. Box 19230, Springfield, Illinois 62794-9230, USA.
