M. T. Parker. J. Fielding. R. M. Payne, and Mrs. B. Ward. S. J. Brooks. D. Corke. M. W.
Hanson. L. Hooper and C. W. Plant all made extremely helpful comments on earlier
drafts of all or part of the texts. Finally, I wish to thank my mother. Mrs. H. L. Benton,

work.

from The Royal Society and a legacy from the estate of Mrs. C. Bignell Pratt.
